The Benedictines at St. Anselm College and Abbey in the Diocese of Manchester,USA hold the same interpretation of extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS) as the St. Benedict Center, New Hampshire. They have no objections or criticism of the Seven Points.

In Rome, Fr. Stefano Visintin osb, the former Rector and Dean of Theology of the Benedictine Pontifical University of St. Anselm, has said that there are no objective  exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS). The baptism of desire, baptism of blood and invincible ignorance are not exceptions.

None of the Benedictines at St. Anselms Abbey in the Diocese of Bishop Peter Libasci contradict Fr. Stefano Visintin, a scientist and theologian.

Among the Benedictine monks in New Hampshire there is no more a rupture with St. Benedict  and St. Anselm understanding of outside the Church there is no salvation. Vatican Council II does not contradict it, any more. -Lionel Andrades
