Catholic Culture : kettle calls the pot black

Catholic Culture which uses an irrational premise in the interpretation of Vatican Council II is criticizing the traditionalists for doing the same thing.The pope preached about Vatican Council II being the work of the Holy Spirit.For Jeff Mirus this means Vatican Council II is a break with Tradition and so he criticizes the traditionalists (1).

Catholic Culture's Mirus understands the Council as being an exception to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. In the past he cited passages from the Council which for him contradict the dogma on exclusive salvation and the rest of Tradiiton. So for him the Council is a break with Tradition and of course he considers this the work of the Holy Spirit.

Even after being informed so many times,in what seems his political position, he still assumes that those saved in invincible ignorance (LG 16) etc are known exceptions, in the present times, to the dogma on salvation in the Catholic Church. This is the new teaching of the Holy Spirit,for him,in Vatican Council II.

 
The Holy Spirit teaches this irrationality ! The dead saved are visible. So they are exceptions to all needing to convert into the Church for salvation.Every one does not need to convert into the Catholic Church as in the past since now there are known exceptions. There were not these known exceptions in the past.

Even after being informed he will not give up this view.Now he is criticizing traditionalists for rejecting the Council. The traditionalists like him also use the false premise and assume that the Council is a break with the past.We have the black kettle and pot. The modernist Jeff Mirus is making the same error as the traditionalists SSPX in the interpretation of Vatican Council II. They are in the same boat.
He welcomes the Council as a break with the past and the traditionalists reject it. Both use the false premise of being able to see the dead saved in invincible ignorance etc.As if a wild premise would nor result in any Magisterial document being a break with the past.

He believes this is the work of the Holy Spirit and so along with 
EWTN, Jeff Mirus' Trinity Communication has placed a report on the Internet, Tragic Errors of Fr.Leonard Feeney.In it he alleges that the late  Fr.William Most had written that the baptism of desire and invincible ignorance are exceptions to the literal interpretation of Fr.Leonard Feeney. In other words these cases are physically visible, they are personally known for them to be exceptions to the literal and traditional interpretation of the dogma by Fr.Leonard Feeney.Visible ghosts now in Heaven. Possibly Mirus assumes that this is also a sure teaching of the Holy Spirit since he will not issue a correction.-Lionel Andrades

we have those who claim to be more Catholic than pope or council. They agree that the Council was indeed a revolution, but a calamitous and ultimately illegitimate one. They argue that the Conciliar acts are replete with a combination of error, imprudence and vagueness which makes them positively harmful, and not at all a fitting inspiration for legitimate Catholic development. Often calling themselves Traditionalists, these almost literally stand on ceremony, ossifying the Church’s pre-Vatican II culture in accordance with their own comfortable piety. http://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/otc.cfm?id=1072
