The media propaganda has begun against the St. Benedict Center and no one is saying that Fr.Leonard Feeney said there are no literal cases of the baptism of desire(BOD), baptism of blood(BOB) and being saved in invincible ignorance.I) for them to be exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS) and Bishop Peter Libasci agrees with Fr. Leonard Feeney.The bishop of Macnhester,USA does not know of any literal case of BOD, BOB and I.I.He personally does not know of someone saved outside the Catholic Church during his lifetime.
This is also confirmed by the Chancellor in the diocese and other Curia members.They are all in agreement with the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary at the St. Benedict Center, N.H.There are not literal exceptions in the present times to Feeneyite EENS.This is a given. This is something obvious. It is not theology.
The Secretaries of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith(CDF) however in their correspondence with Brother Andre Marie MICM, Prior, St. Benedict Center have made a factual mistake.The Catechism of the Catholic Church(n.847-848 invincible ignorance) can never be a practical example of salvation outside the Church.There is no such person in New Hampshire.There is no exception to EENS.But for the CDF, there are exceptions to EENS and so it cannot be said that there are only Catholics in Heaven.
Brother Andre Marie affirms CCC 847- 848 since it can only hypothetical, a possibility to God and not a practical exception to the traditional teaching on all needing faith and the baptism of water for salvation(AG 7, Vatican Council II).
So the St.Benedict Center can affirm the 'rigorist interpretation' of EENS and also Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Vatican Council II with hypothetical cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc is not an exception to EENS and Tradition.But for the CDF, Vatican Council II is rupture with EENS.Why ? Since the CDF( Holy Office 1949) made a factual mistake in the Fr. Leonard Feeney case.They confused what was invisible as being visible.Then they create a new theology upon this error.
The CDF Secretaries in their correspondence, tell Brother Andre Marie that he must accept that the Church is the sign and Sacrament of salvation. He affirms this!!. Since it is not an exception to the centuries old interpretation of EENS.There is no problem here for him.
There is nothing in the Cathechism of the Catholic Church to contradict Feeneyite EENS.Brother Andre Marie affirms EENS like all the popes before Pius XII. For them there were no objective cases of BOD, BOB and I.I.
Fr Georges de Laire, the vicar for canonical affairs for the Manchester diocese, also does not know of any literal case of someone saved outside the Church in 2016-2019.So how can there be known exceptions to the traditional teaching on there being only Catholics in Heaven? Where are the exceptions in his diocese?
Possibilities of salvation outside the Church by their very nature can only be subjective and speculative, for us human beings.The normal means of salvation for us Catholics is faith and baptism (AG 7, LG 14, Vatican Council II).Most people die outside the Catholic Church and so are oriented to the fires of Hell.
NEW SYNCRETISTIC DICASTERY SOON AT THE VATICAN
The reports on the St. Benedict Center precede the formation of a new super dicastery at the Vatican, approved by the Left.It will proclaim Jesus without the faith and moral teachings of the Catholic Church. The Sacraments will not be necessary for salvation.It will be open to non Catholics and later may be even non Christians.Pope Francis is also opening the reception of the Eucharist for all.So the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus has to be set aside with punitive measures.
Pope Francis like Pope Benedict does not believe in the dogma EENS .They are in heresy.They reject the Athanasius Creed and the Syllabus of Errors. This is first class heresy and present day modernism.
With this heresy the Mass of the present two popes is a scandal and a sacrilege.
The Curia members and catechists in the Diocese of Manchester avoid this mortal sin of faith.
For Mary Ellen Mahon , the Director of Education and catechesis and a member of the Curia, there are no literal cases of the BOD, BOB and I.I.None known to her.
She affirms the necessity of Catholic faith and the baptism of water for salvation.
She is in harmony with the popes before Pius XII who accepted only a hypothetical BOD, BOB and I.I.They did not project BOD, BOB and I.I as practical exceptions to EENS. This mistake was made by the liberal theologians and the traditionalists during and after the pontificate of Pope Pius XII. They re-interpreted the popes before Pius XII when they mentioned BOD, BOB and I.I.Then they claimed that the popes contradict Fr. Leonard Feeney. This narrative was approved by Pope Benedict and Cardinal Ladaria in two theologial papers of the International Theological Commission.
Mary Ellen Mahon and the other Catechist's in the Diocese of Manchester are Feeneyites on theology.This is not reported by the media.
Like the catechists in the Diocese of Manchester, I follow the Magisterium of the Catholic Church guided by the Holy Spirit and not the SPLC,ADL etc.The Left have approved a new theology for Catholics, based upon a false premise and inference to create a rupture with Tradition and EENS.
A religious community in the Diocese of Worcester, USA, which has full canonical status, supports Bro.Andre Marie and Mary Ellen Mahon.
