The SSPX, or Society of Saint Pius X, is a schismatic organization which is not "Catholic". They have separated themselves from communion with Rome, and so your attendance at one of their masses doesn't "count" for your Sunday obligation.

I'm a Catholic who came of age during the events following Vatican II, so I can't understand why anyone would prefer a Latin mass. God understands all languages, so why not have the mass in your local vernacular? Of course, this is just my opinion, so I would be interested in hearing from others.
