The St.Benedict Centers could affirm EENS and Vatican Council II without the Lefebvrist theology



The St.Benedict Centers could support Fr. Leonard Feeney's strict interpretation of extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) but why has it to be with Lefbvrist theology ? Lefebvrist theology comes from their irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II. Similarly there is also a liberal theology, approved by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith(CDF).It is also created with their irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II.
If the Lefebvrists and liberals did not know use their New Theology, they could go back to the 16th century EENS along with Vatican Council II interpreted rationally.Now it is EENS and Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally.
For instance, I could go for Holy Mass in Latin at the FSSP church Trinita dei Pelligrini, Rome without being a Lefbvrist or liberal.I could affirm 16th century EENS, with the baptism of desire(BOD), baptism of blood(BOB) and invincible ignorance(I.I) not being exceptions.I could also affirm Vatican Council II with LG 8, GS 22, UR 3, NA 2 etc not being exceptions to EENS.
Similarly I could attend Holy Mass in Italian  with the Franciscans of the Immaculate, Boccea, Rome and also affirm Feeneyite EENS, without the Lefbvrist theology. So it would be EENS with BOD, BOB and I.I not being exceptions. I could also affirm the  Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX, the Catechism of Pope Pius X, the Athanasius Creed and other Magisterial documents.The old rational theology is not restricted to the liturgy.
Those who attend Mass at the St.Benedict Centers could do the same.Also those who attend the Latin Mass with the Franciscans of the Immaculate, could do the same. They can affirm Tradition without the Lefebvrist theology. They have a new option.
Presently Lefebvrists are traditionalists on the liturgy and modernists with their new theology based on the irrational interpretation of BOD, BOB and I.I and  LG 8, UR 3 etc.
At a Lepanto Foundation conference a few years back two of the speakers criticized the New Theology but both of them use the same New Theology to interpret Vatican Council II and EENS irrationally.Then they reject the conclusion. -Lionel Andrades
