- I just answered your points. You can't answer mine. You claim there are two ways to interpret Vatican II--that makes it heretical!
Pope Pius VI, condemning the Synod of Pistoia, Bull “Auctorem fidei," August 28, 1794:
“[The Ancient Doctors] knew the capacity of innovators in the art of deception. In order not to shock the ears of Catholics, they sought to hide the subtleties of their tortuous maneuvers by the use of seemingly innocuous words such as would allow them to insinuate error into souls in the most gentle manner. Once the truth had been compromised, they could, by means of slight changes or additions in phraseology, distort the confession of the faith which is necessary for our salvation, and lead the faithful by subtle errors to their eternal damnation. This manner of dissimulating and lying is vicious, regardless of the circumstances under which it is used. For very good reasons it can never be tolerated in a synod of which the principal glory consists above all in teaching the truth with clarity and excluding all danger of error.
"Moreover, if all this is sinful, it cannot be excused in the way that one sees it being done, under the erroneous pretext that the seemingly shocking affirmations in one place are further developed along orthodox lines in other places, and even in yet other places corrected; as if allowing for the possibility of either affirming or denying the statement, or of leaving it up the personal inclinations of the individual – such has always been the fraudulent and daring method used by innovators to establish error. It allows for both the possibility of promoting error and of excusing it.
"It is as if the innovators pretended that they always intended to present the alternative passages, especially to those of simple faith who eventually come to know only some part of the conclusions of such discussions which are published in the common language for everyone's use. Or again, as if the same faithful had the ability on examining such documents to judge such matters for themselves without getting confused and avoiding all risk of error. It is a most reprehensible technique for the insinuation of doctrinal errors and one condemned long ago by our predecessor Saint Celestine who found it used in the writings of Nestorius, Bishop of Constantinople, and which he exposed in order to condemn it with the greatest possible severity. Once these texts were examined carefully, the impostor was exposed and confounded, for he expressed himself in a plethora of words, mixing true things with others that were obscure; mixing at times one with the other in such a way that he was also able to confess those things which were denied while at the same time possessing a basis for denying those very sentences which he confessed."In order to expose such snares, something which becomes necessary with a certain frequency in every century, no other method is required than the following: WHENEVER IT BECOMES NECESSARY TO EXPOSE STATEMENTS WHICH DISGUISE SOME SUSPECTED ERROR OR DANGER UNDER THE VEIL OF AMBIGUITY, ONE MUST DENOUNCE THE PERVERSE MEANING UNDER WHICH THE ERROR OPPOSED TO CATHOLIC TRUTH IS CAMOUFLAGED.”Pope Pius VI teaches us that if someone veils a heresy in ambiguity, a Catholic must hold him to the heretical meaning and denounce the heretical meaning which is camouflaged in ambiguity. He points out that heretics have always used such tactics to insinuate their doctrinal errors and heresies. There are countless examples from the Vatican II apostasy that could be given for which this teaching applies. There are plenty of bold and unambiguous heresies taught by the Vatican II sect and the Vatican II antipopes, but there are also countless heresies that are veiled in ambiguity or contradictory statements. The fact that these must be held to their heretical meaning is not just the teaching of the Church, but also common sense. - For instance, if a man says that he is against abortion but sometimes contradicts himself and votes in favor of it, he is a supporter of abortion. He rejects Catholic teaching. Likewise, if a man teaches that there is no salvation outside the Church but sometimes teaches that souls can be saved without the Catholic Faith, he rejects the dogma Outside the Church There is No Salvation. If he didn’t believe in salvation outside the Church he wouldn’t teach it even one time. If he didn’t support abortion he wouldn’t vote in favor of it. The fact that he contradicts himself doesn’t show that he is not teaching heresy. Pope Pius VI teaches that heretics have always used such tactics because they are deceivers and dishonest at their core. Those who say that heretics cannot be held to their heretical meanings because they often state precisely the opposite – even sometimes within the same context – or because they veil it in ambiguity, aid and abet heretics, assist the destruction of the Faith and contradict the authoritative teaching of the Church. And this is precisely the method of the post-V2 popes. Welcome to sedevacantism!
Lionel:
You have not answered a single one and it is sad that Bp. Sanborn and Fr. Cekada do not come to your rescue since they have been trained in philosophy and theology and would be able to answer my questions with rationality and logic.

You can't answer mine. You claim there are two ways to interpret Vatican II--that makes it heretical!
Lionel:
Yes I agree one way is heretical. One way is also irrational.As a lay man if you could trace the irrational one you may also discover the heretical one.

Yes the truth has been compromised here. This is why I keep writing about it.

Lionel:
An innovation was made in the Baltimore Catechism it was accepted in the otherwise good Catechism of Pope Pius XII it was an innocent mistake. It became Magisterial in 1949 at Boston and was included in Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
The error was based on an innocent irrationality and so it can be reversed. I write all this, I refer to a Magisterial heresy not to condemn, but so that it can be corrected.

"It is as if the innovators...a basis for denying those very sentences which he confessed.
Lionel:
The error has been insinuated in the Catholic Church and the traditionalists have also accepted it. This was the mistake made by Archbishop Lefebvre in the interpretation of the Letter of the Holy Office 1949 and Vatican Council II.He promoted liberalism and no one in the SSPX until today can refute what I say. They know I am correct.________________________- "In order to expose such snares,... ONE MUST DENOUNCE THE PERVERSE MEANING UNDER WHICH THE ERROR OPPOSED TO CATHOLIC TRUTH IS CAMOUFLAGED.”Lionel:
- Agreed.
So when the Baltimore Catechism suggests the Baptism of desire(BD) and Baptism of blood (BOB)are baptisms like the Baptism of water(BOW) there is ambiguity here.
Since the BOD and BOB cannot be known like the BOW.
They cannot be administered like the BOW.
They depend only on God while the BOW is under our control.
No one in the past has known or see a BOW or BOB case, since that person would only be known to God in Heaven.
So how can zero cases in our reality be relevant to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the necessity for all to receive the baptism of water for salvation.
There is confusion here.
The link was made between BOD and BOW with EENS. In other words BOD and BOB were explicit and known, to be exceptions to all needing the baptism of water for salvation.
How can people in Heaven be exceptions to EENS on earth in 2015 for example? This is irrational.
So there is ambiguity here. - ________________________
Pope Pius VI teaches us that if someone veils a heresy in ambiguity, a Catholic must hold him to the heretical meaning and denounce the heretical meaning which is camouflaged in ambiguity.
Lionel: - So you could acknowledge the ambiguity at leaset, as a first step.I have already denounced it.
- _______________________
He points out that heretics...this teaching applies.
Lionel: - When you refer to the Vatican Council II apostasy I assume this is based on the online writings of Bishop Sanborn and Fr. Cekada, critical of VC2.
Apostasy is a vague word. I have been precise in my writings.
Bp. Sanborn refers to LG 18 ( Subsistit it). For him LG 8 refers to an explicit case which contradicts the old ecclesiology. There is salvation outside the Church for him.
So he concludes that this is apostasy.
For me LG 8 is not explicit. I have cited two links.
So you could be precise and not ambigous and comment on this.
There is a misunderstanding with Lumen Gentium also in their writings.
How many times have I asked you and them if LG 16 is explicit or implicit?
You probably know the answer by now and may have guessed that the sede position is heretical,ambigous and irrational and so no one wants to answer. - _______________________
There are plenty of bold and unambiguous ... Likewise, if a man teaches that there is no salvation outside the Church but sometimes teaches that souls can be saved without the Catholic Faith, he rejects the dogma Outside the Church There is No Salvation.Lionel: - Agreed.
'if a man teaches that there is no salvation outside the Church but sometimes teaches that souls can be saved without the Catholic Faith, he rejects the dogma Outside the Church There is No Salvation.'
And are you saying this is not the position of the Most Holy Family Trinity seminary in Florida, USA under Bishop Sanborn ?
So you believe in salvation outside the Church as do Bishop Sanborn and Fr. Cekada since LG 8(explicit) refers to salvation outside the Church so you reject Vatican Council II this is apostasy for you.
The faculty at the seminary imply that LG 16 is an exception to EENS. So LG 16 is explicit for them. They use this reasoning to reject VC2.
I do not use this reasoning and none of you will comment on this.
- ______________________
If he didn’t support abortion ... contradict the authoritative teaching of the Church.
Lionel: - Agreed! And tell me how is this not your position?
LG 16, LG 8 refer to explicit cases for you so you reject VC2. This is heresy.
LG 16, LG 8 refer to implicit cases, not visible in the flesh for me , so it does not reject VC2. I accept the Council.This is not heresy.
The BOD and BOB cases for you all are explicit and so this is a rejection of the dogma EENS. This is heresy.
The baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance refer to invisible cases for me and so they are not exceptions to the dogma EENS. I accept EENS and so this is not heresy.
The Letter of the Holy Office 1949 assumed that the baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance were exceptions to the dogma EENS. The second part of the Letter contradicted the first part.
The second part of the Letter was heresy.It was Magisterial heresy. I accept the first part of the Letter which affirms the dogma and I reject the second part.
You accept the second part of the Letter ( which is heresy) and claim that you also accept the first part. This is ambiguity. - ________________
