Is our problem with the New Mass psychological?

Back a couple of weeks ago, Jimmy Akin posted an article by Tim Jones to his blog entitled "Cognitive Dissonance and the New Mass" (JimmyAkin.Org, May 2, 2007). Some of you may have read it. Jones is a thoughtful convert with an outlook generally appreciative of things historical and traditional. He imagines the cognitive dissonance many Catholics must have felt when they experienced the liturgical revolution but where told by their pastors that this was Mass -- the NEW Mass. He then writes:

"But," you might ask, "what about the Old Mass? Can't I go to the Old Mass?"

And that's the kicker. I doubt, really, that most of these "Rad-Trad" folks would have had that big a problem with the mere existence of the Novus Ordo mass, had the Old Mass been allowed to continue alongside it. The problem - perhaps - wasn't so much the introduction of the New Mass as the fact that the beloved Old Mass was, for all practical purposes, swept away to make room for it. If those strongly attached to the TLM still had access to such a mass in their own parish (or nearby) I doubt we would see the level of anger and the veiled - or explicit - charges that the Novus Ordo is invalid and a tool of the devil.

Do you think that the true?
