What is the False Premise ? Could you spell it out.

The False Premise is the action and result of confusing what is invisible as being visible, unknown as being known. So with reference to Vatican Council II, if LG 8, LG 14, LG 16 etc refer to visible non Catholics saved outside the Church in 2022 then this is the False Premise. With the False Premise comes the False Inference.

So the False Premise is confusing hypothetical and invisible cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc as being objective and personally known non Catholics saved outside the Church in 1965-2022, without faith and baptism . They are saved in invincible ignorance(LG 16) etc.

FALSE INFERENCE

So the premise decides the inference. If LG 16 etc refer to visible and known people saved outside the Catholic Church without faith and the baptism of water then Cardinal Ratzinger could infer that there are practical exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nullas salus.It is obsolete

FALSE CONCLUSION

So with the False Inference comes the False Conclusion. When LG 16 etc are practical exceptions for EENS etc then it could be concluded that Vatican Council II is a break with the past ecclesiology and the rest of Tradition.There is a break with the past Magisterium.

So the Conclusion is False since invisible people cannot be visible exceptions for EENS, the Syllabus of Errors and the Athanasius Creed. This Creed says all need to be members of the Catholic Church for salvation.We cannot see people in Heaven and on earth at the same time.

So with the False Premise we have the False Conclusion which says Vatican Council II is a break with the Syllabus of Errors etc. It is False since LG 16 etc can only be invisible and theoretical for us human beings. If someone was saved as such it would be known only to God.
