Answer to two simple questions show Cushing to be in heresy and not Feeney

Ask two simple questions and see where they lead.These are common sense rational questions and not theology.
The two questions are:-
 

1) Do we personally know the dead now saved in invincible ignorance, a good conscience (LG 16) etc,can we see them, are they physically visible to us in 2013 ? Answer: NO

 
2) Since we do not know any of these cases, there are no known exceptions to the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus ? Answer: THERE ARE NONE.
  
Common sense tells us that there are no known exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam defined by three Church Councils and which Pope Pius XII called an 'infallible statement'.
Now apply this knowledge to magisterial texts.Here is one for example.
DOMINUS IESUS
Above all else, it must be firmly believed that “the Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and baptism (cf. Mk 16:16; Jn 3:5), and thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men enter through baptism as through a door”.77 This doctrine must not be set against the universal salvific will of God (cf. 1 Tim 2:4); “it is necessary to keep these two truths together, namely, the real possibility of salvation in Christ for all mankind and the necessity of the Church for this salvation”.
 
The Church is the “universal sacrament of salvation”,79 since, united always in a mysterious way to the Saviour Jesus Christ, her Head, and subordinated to him, she has, in God's plan, an indispensable relationship with the salvation of every human being.80 For those who are not formally and visibly members of the Church, “salvation in Christ is accessible by virtue of a grace which, while having a mysterious relationship to the Church, does not make them formally part of the Church, but enlightens them in a way which is accommodated to their spiritual and material situation... -Dominus Iesus 20
 
The passage in orange is not an exception to the passage in yellow.
To assume that the passage in orange is an exception to the passage in yellow is irrationality. It is also saying that there are known exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. This is heresy.
Cushingism states all do not need to enter the Catholic Church for salvation in the present times and there are known exceptions. Cushingism indicates that the passage in orange is an exception to the passage in yellow.This was the public position of the Archbishop of Boston Cardinal Richard Cushing and the Jesuits there who sought the excommunication of Fr.Leonard  Feeney.

It was Cardinal Richard Cushing who was irrational and in heresy and not Fr.Leonard Feeney.

Catholic magisterial documents can be interpreted according to Feeneyism or Cushingism
In a prepared statement for the press the former Jesuit(Fr.Leonard Feeney) added: "The conscience difficulty is that the diocese of Boston, under the auspices of Archbishop Cushing, and Boston College, under the auspices of Father John J. McEloney, S.J., both notably ignorant in the field of Catholic theology ... are teaching that there is salvation outside the Catholic Church." - Father Feeney Is Dismissed From Jesuit Order by Rome (The Harvard Crimson October 29,1949) (Emphasis added)

Department of Theology at Opus Dei University Rome refuse to answer two questions

The day before yesterday I went to the office of Mons.Rodriguez Luno, on the fourth floor of the University of the Holy Cross, the Opus Dei University in Rome. I asked for an appointment with Mons.Luno.I was told he is the head of the department.
I was given his e-mail and telephone number and told to contact him. So I e-mailed him yesterday (1).
 
He has been prompt in replying (2).However he will not answer the two questions even though it is related to his Department and the theology departments in general.
 
He responds:
I am writing to inform you that I do not want to make a statement on those issues.
 Cordially.

At this Opus Dei University in Rome  they presently teach that there are known exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. In other words, they can see the dead who are saved in invincible ignorance etc who are visible exceptions to every one needing to convert into the Church for salvation.
Students have to approve this irrationality in class to get their degree. They are also issuing Licentiate and Doctorate degrees to students who maintain this absurdity and change the traditional teaching on salvation and mission.They are also offering a Masters degree for Seminary formators.
 
Mons.Luno is not responding on a subject he gets paid to teach and which is part of the Catholic Faith.

Dear Monsgr.Rodriguez Luno   ,
Praised be Jesus and Our Lady.
I yesterday came to your office hoping to arrange a short meeting with you and to ask you a few questions on Church doctrine and permission to place your answers on my blog Eucharist and Mission.
The questions are doctrinal and related to the dogmas of the Catholic Church and to Vatican Council II.
Here are the two questions I wanted to ask you.




1) Do we personally know the dead now saved in invincible ignorance, a good conscience (LG 16) etc,can we see them, are they physically visible to us in 2013 ?

 
2) Since we do not know any of these cases, there are no known exceptions to the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus ?
I would welcome your answers and a chance to meet you at your convenience whenever you would indicate to me it is possible.
I am a Catholic, a lay man living in Rome and my interest is Church Mission and evangelization -with the correct Church doctrine.
In Christ
Mr.Lionel Andrades,
Catholic layman in Rome.
