On the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops(USCCB) website under the title Beliefs and Teachings 1 Vatican Council II is referred to vaguely. It is not said that Vatican Council II says in Ad Gentes 7, that all all need 'faith and baptism' for salvation and that Hindus,Buddhists, Jews,Muslims etc do not have it.So according to the official teaching of the Catholic Church (AG 7,CCC 846 etc) all non Catholics are oriented to Hell since they do not have what is needed for salvation.They need to formally convert into the Catholic Church with 'faith and baptism' to avoid the fires of Hell.This is also the traditional pre-Vatican Council II teaching expressed by Church Councils and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
This important point was excluded from the US Catholic Catechism for Adults.
Also recently on a USCCB Daily Mass Readings video, Jem Sullivan mentioned the necessity of Jesus for salvation without the necessity of formal entry in the Catholic Church.This was a contradiction of Vatican Council II, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the Council of Trent, the Catechism of Pope Pius X and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
Fr.Dan Merz, Associate Director, Secretariate of Divine Worship,USCCB in a letter defending Jem Sullivan implied that being saved in invincible ignorance or the baptism of desire is physically visible in the present times.So all people defacto do not have to enter the Catholic Church for salvation.
This is the standard policy of the USCCB and the Vatican.It is a rejection of extra ecclesiam nulla salus and Vatican Council II because of alleged visibly known cases in the present time, who do not need the baptism of water.
Fr.Dan Merz cites the Catechism of the Catholic Church 1260 and infers that the person saved in invincible ignorance, who has not heard the Gospel through no fault of his own, is not a hypothetical posibility but an actual defacto known case in 2014. So for him too this is an exception to all needing the baptism of water for salvation in 2014.This case would have to be visible and known to him, to be an exception.
This is USCCB heresy.It is a denial of the thrice defined dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus which Pope Pius XII called an 'infallible teaching'. It is a rejection of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (846) which cites Ad Gentes 7 under the sub title Outside the Church No Salvation.The USCCB instead is saying outside the Church there is salvation and infers that there are such cases known to them in the present times.This is a contradiction of Dominus Iesus 20 which says even though there is potential universal salvation, which is available for all people, all need to enter the Church for salvation. The USCCB is saying that this is not true. 
On the website of the Archdiocese of Boston(Ecumenical and Inter Religious Section) there is statement which says Jews do not need to convert into the Church for salvation.There is no correction from the USCCB.
All these errors are being taught in the USCCB Certification Course for Catechists.

Beliefs and Teachings
The Second Vatican Council declared that "the future of humanity is in the hands of those men who are capable of providing the generations to come with reasons for life and optimism." (GS, no 31). No one can live without the hope that life has ultimate and lasting meaning beyond the concerns and struggles, the joys and satisfactions of each day. Catholics find that meaning and hope in Jesus Christ, whom God the Father has sent into the world for the salvation of all peoples.Catholics find that meaning and hope in Jesus Christ, whom God the Father has sent into the world for the salvation of all peoples.
But the world can be a disturbing place. There is war and anxiety because of terrorism. There is the fierceness of competition and the injustices that come from greed. There are continuous distractions that come from the media, the numerous hours given to television, radio, and Internet. There are the unrelenting demands of work and family life.
Yet in the midst of all this, people are generously loving within their families, with their friends, and for their communities. Nevertheless, a nagging question remains: Where is all this going? There is a persistent thirst for meaning and hope.
Many people find refuge in various types of spiritual activities and communities that promise serenity in a hectic world and refuge from its pressures. They look to meditation techniques and to well-publicized personalities for ways to find tranquility and some hope for themselves.
God continues to be present in his Church as her members are brought together by the Holy Spirit to celebrate the Seven Sacraments, most especially the Eucharist.
God continues to be present in the Church as her members strive to live according to the example and teaching of Jesus Christ.
God continues to be present in the Church as her members contemplate the great things God has done through his Son by the power of the Holy Spirit for the salvation of all people.
The Church is a community of human beings who are still subject to sin, and so it is with humility that she offers herself as the meeting place with the living God. Her existence for two thousand years demonstrates the unceasing mercy and love of God in maintaining her in his grace as a faithful and repentant people. In a world of passing fads and transitory ambitions, she offers the substance of the wisdom of the Gospel and her growing understanding of it through two millennia. She offers the possibility of enriching the present moment with the gifts of a tradition rooted in God's self-revelation and with the hope and meaning for human life that come from God himself. In a world torn by war and injustice, she celebrates the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the gift of himself made eternally present and effective, to make all peoples one with him as head of a reconciled and healed community. In a world of violence against human life, the Church mightily defends life by her works of justice and charity as well as by her advocacy for the protection of all human life.

Many people find refuge in various types of spiritual activities and communities that promise serenity in a hectic world and refuge from its pressures. They look to meditation techniques and to well-publicized personalities for ways to find tranquility and some hope for themselves.
In the midst of such a culture, the Catholic Church offers a message that is not its own, but comes from God's self-revelation in Jesus Christ two thousand years ago, yet is ever new and renewing as it is received, celebrated, lived, and contemplated today. The Church offers to all people the possibility of encountering the living God today and finding in him lasting meaning and hope.
God continues to be present in the Church as the Gospel of his Son, Jesus Christ, is proclaimed and received by her members through the life-giving power of the Holy Spirit.God continues to be present in his Church as her members are brought together by the Holy Spirit to celebrate the Seven Sacraments, most especially the Eucharist.
