They are both man-made traditions.

Where does Jesus Himself, (his actual words) say they are of God.

The main difference is that Vatican II teachings are actually AGAINST the 'TRUE' Catholic Church. The changes that were made are actually Satanist, which explains how a Mass of death could become a Mass of life. To learn more go to: WNW.sgg.org and WNW.traditionalmass.org

Okay, took me a little bit to figure out what you were referring to, but I've got it now. What you call the "Mass of Death" and the "Mass of Life" actually refers to two different ways of doing Catholic funerals. Before Vatican II, the priest wore black vestments at a funeral. This was, of course, a sign of death and of mourning. Since Vatican II, the priest has been been permitted to wear white instead, and many do. White is a sign of resurrection and joy. The post-Vatican II Mass encourages a different perspective on death; it is not an ending but a beginning. Other than that, I think the differences are the same as with any Prue/post VII Mass - Latin/Vernacular, ad orient um/apsidum, Eucharist on the tongue/in the mouth, etc. A wider variety of music was permitted, and I imagine that was reflected in the funeral Mass as well.
