The Denzinger Schonmetzer (3870-387) has published the Letter of the Holy Office 1949 which indicates that the dead are visible to us according to Catholic religious. The dead saved in invincible ignorance and the baptism of desire are physically visible to us.This is the interpretation of the Letter of the Holy Office by numerous people.
Since Fr.Leonard Feeney was corrected for denying visible baptism of desire it is alleged, the Church no more holds the literal interpretation of extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
According to this common interpretation, the Holy Spirit is now saying that the dogma has been superseded.This is all based on the ability to be able to physically see the dead who are saved.
Since it is in the Denzinger it is official i.e the deceased now saved with the baptism of desire etc and who are now in Heaven are physically visible to us.
It may be mentioned that this is a false view.
The Letter of the Holy Office supported Fr.Leonard Feeney on doctrine and criticized him for disobedience.The Letter mentions the 'dogma'. The text of the dogma does not cite any exceptions.
Also the Letter does not state that the baptism of desire and all implicit- to-us salvation is explicit or an exception to the dogma and the literal interpretation of Fr.Leonard Feeney.

Does that mean that most Catholics deny a defined dogma of the faith and are logically going to Hell?
Most of them do not know. It is unintentional.
However there are others who do know. They reject a dogma, sometimes in public. This is a grave sin.
