Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) and Jeff Mirus owner of Trinity Communications could stop maligning Fr.Leonard Feeney on the on line report Tragic Errors of Fr.Leonar Feeney.Since, we do not know any case of the baptism of desire and so the baptism of desire is not an explicit exception to the dogma outside the Church there is no salvation. The report on the Internet placed for EWTN by Trinity Communications, criticizes Fr.Leonard Feeney for not accepting the baptism of desire as a known exception to the dogma on salvation.
The baptism of desire is known only to God, so it is irrelevant to Fr.Leonard Feeney's position on extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
How can Jeff Mirus and EWTN use this irrationality to malign a good Catholic priest?
It is false for Jeff Mirus and EWTN to imply that they can see the dead alive on earth saved with the baptism of desire or in invincible ignorance?
They should pull down that report and issue a clarification saying Catholics cannot see the dead on earth. So these cases (baptism of desire etc) are not exceptions to the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
Implicit baptism of desire is compatabile with the 'strict interpretation' of the dogma.They do not contradict the dogma on exclusive salvation in only the Catholic Church.
Their report indicates that Catholics can see the dead saved and these cases are exceptions to the interpretation of Fr.Leonard Feeney. It is not even clear if they mean that they, Mirus and the EWTN Management, can see the dead on earth.-Lionel Andrades
