When Mary Ellen Mahon Cabinet Secretary for Catholic Formation and Director of Pastoral Ministry,Diocese of Manchester, USA says that the St. Benedict Center in the diocese cannot be considered Catholic. It shows that she is immersed fully in Cushingism ( invisible people are visible in the present times). She interprets Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church with Cushingism and then projects them both as being exceptions to the strict interpretation of extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS).
Cushingism has been dominant in the Church since the time of Pope Pius XII who did not defend Fr. Leonard Feeney in public.It has spread throughout the Church like the Aryan heresy of past-times.
Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church can be interpreted without Cushingism.This would be the Feeneyite interpretation.But then Mary Ellen Mahon would be affirming the strict interpretation of EENS.Since there would be no known exceptions to EENS mentioned in Vatican Council II or the Catechism of the Catholic Church.She could lose her job in the diocese.
With Feeneyism( invisible people are not visible) Vatican Council II and the Catechism(1994) are not in conflict with the 'rigorist' interpretation of the dogma EENS.
Hypothetically being saved in invincible ignorance outside the Church or the case of the unknown catechist( Lumen Gentium 14) are not exceptions to EENS.
Mary Ellen Mahon does not tell Catholics in the diocese that they can interpret Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church without Cushingism. Since then they would all not be Catholic for her.-Lionel Andrades
