The Roman Rota and members of Canonists and theological associations in Italy interpret Vatican Council II by confusing invisible cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc as referring to visible non Catholics saved outside the Church. Even judges of the secular courts in Italy, have had a religious formation at pontifical universities.

Fr.Hadi Daou, the Chaplin and Vice Rector of the Pontifical Maronite College, Rome said on Saturday that he did not  know of any one saved in invincible ignorance. He did not know of any one saved  outside the Church. If there were  any such cases they would only be known to God. I agree  with him. This is common sense.So LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II can only refer  to hypothetical cases. They are not objectively seen non Catholics. The New Theology in Vatican Council II is based upon the false reasoning in the Letter of the Holy Office 1949. The baptism of desire(BOD) and invincible ignorance (I.I) were exceptions to Feeneyite extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS).They (BOD and I.I and LG 8 etc) are not people whom we can meet and see. So they are not exceptions to the present exclusivist ecclesiology, an ecumenism of return and 16th century EENS.Invisible people cannot be exceptions. An exception must exist. The person must be there. We cannot say that any particular person whom we know, will be saved without 'faith and baptism'(AG 7). A 'possibility' is not an exception  in real life. So we can affirm Vatican Council II but not as being a rupture with the Syllabus of Errors and the Athanasius Creed. This is a mistake being made by the Secretaries of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith(CDF), Archbishops Giacomo Morandi and Augustine di Noia.There is not theological basis for the New Theology, New Ecumenism, New Canon Law etc, in Vatican Council II..There is no foundation for them when the Council is interpreted rationally, without confusing what is invisible as being visible.

So when I say outside the Church there is no salvation I am affirming Vatican Council II, Ad Gentes 7, which says all need faith and baptism for salvation ( to avoid Hell). The Conciliar Church, in the text of Vatican Council II, supports exclusive salvation. Membership in the Church with faith and baptism are necessary for salvation.It is not Jesus, without the Catholic Church. It is not a vague Christology without an ecclesiocentric ecclesiology. Jesus must not be separated from the Church says Pope John Paul II's encyclical Dominus Iesus.

Even judges of the secular courts in Italy, have had religious formation at pontifical universities.

At the Catholic educational institutions,  hypothetical cases were confused as being non hypothetical. So Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church are still wrongly interpreted as a split with the past teachings of the Church on exclusive salvation.

Now members of the Roman Rota  and Catholic members of the Judiciary in the secular courts in Italy do not tell  Catholics,that they must believe that there are only Catholics in Heaven and this is the Conciliar Church after Vatican Council II.They do not say this since they were taught to interpret Vatican Council II with LG 8, LG 14, LG 16 etc referring to visible non Catholics saves outside the Catholic Church.

So when I say that all non Catholics, including Pentecostals and Evangelicals, are oriented to Hell outside the Catholic Church, this is not just a personal view. I am supported by Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, interpreted rationally. I am affirming what has been the teaching of the Magisterium for centuries.-Lionel Andrades
