WASTED TELEPHONE CALLS: BAPTISM OF DESIRE IS NOT AN EXCEPTION TO THE DOGMA OUTSIDE THE CHURCH THERE IS NO SALVATION.

Bro. Peter Dimond, O.S.B. phones up the Congregatio Mariae Reginae Immaculatae assuming those saved in invincible ignorance etc are de facto known to us, and you could telephone or meet these rare cases.

Bro. Peter Dimond does not make the de facto de jure distinction present in Catholic magisterial documents including the Letter of the Holy Office 1949 issued to the Archbishop of Boston.(1)

To believe that the baptism of desire is known defacto and an exception to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus  is the legacy of Cardinal Richard Cushing, the Archbishop of Boston. This is heresy. The sedevacantist community he accuses of mortal sin could claim that Bro. Peter Dimond says he affirms the dogma but rejects the Church’s teaching on the baptism of desire. (Council of Trent etc).

Did he ask if they could be saved in general in their religion or does he just assume it ?Did he ask if those who can be saved in their religion ‘in certain circumstances’ was a theoretical possibility or was it a known reality?Could those being saved in their religion and unknown to us also be given the grace of the baptism of water ?These questions were not asked by Bro. Peter Dimond . (2)

The baptism of water is explicit. The baptism of desire is always implicit. So how can it be an exception to the dogma?

The visible baptism of desire and defacto known cases of persons saved in invincible ignorance is the irrational theme that runs though the book, perhaps unknowingly to the sedevacantists Most Holy Family Monastery.
The Letter of the Holy Office 1949 was critical of the Archbishop and used a de facto dejure analysis. The MHFM use a defacto-defacto philosophical analysis and contradict the Principle of Non Contradiction. One assumes it is not  intentional.-Lionel Andrades

This heresy was so blatant that I called the headquarters of the CMRI in Washington and spoke to one of the priests about the article. He told me that he had “no problem with it.” –Bro.Peter Dimond, The Heretical CMRI (website of the Most Holy Family Monastery) http://www.mostholyfamilymonastery.com/The_Heretical_CMRI.php

A priest from the CMRI’s seminary in Nebraska and a nun from the CMRI convent in Washington told me (when I questioned them over the telephone) that non-Catholics who die in their false religions can be saved without the Catholic faith.
