Mark Brumbley, President and CEO of
Ignatius Press, a conservative and modernist Catholic publishing house, agrees
with me when I say that there are no physically visible cases of being saved
with the baptism of desire or in invincible ignorance in 2022.
I had asked him to clarify that he
will only accept manuscripts from authors who are rational and ethical in their
interpretation of Vatican Council II, the baptism of desire etc. This is being
honest, real and Catholic.
How can Ignatius Press publish books by
cardinals who suggest that there are physically visible exceptions for
Tradition when it is known that there are no such physically visible cases in
our reality?
I had said, ‘So there are no
physically visible cases of non Catholics saved outside the Church for you. You
do not deny it. You agree with me. Yet this is not said by authors at Ignatius
including Pope Benedict. He made an objective mistake is books on ecclesiology
etc.’
There has no comment or deny by
Brumbley on this point.
I had mentioned that ‘when I say that
LG 9, 14 and 16 refer to physically invisible cases this would also be your reality.
You would agree with me. I am saying the obvious. This is your physical
observation too. It is not a theology or only my view. It is also the reality
of Fr. Joseph Fessio.
‘It is the common reality of human
beings – that the baptism of desire etc refer to invisible people. If someone
is saved as such it can be known only to God. We cannot see or meet someone
saved outside the Church. This is a given. Yet Ignatius Press authors differ.
‘How can Ignatius Press contradict
John Martignoni and suggest that the baptism of desire and being saved in
invincible ignorance refer to physically visible cases? This is an irrational premise.
It is an objective lie. This cannot be an approved policy for authors.
The apologist at EWTN, John
Martignoni, says the baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance
are “zero cases” in our reality. Yet, Ignatius Press authors project them as
explicit examples of salvation outside the Church and so are exceptions for
EENS.
In communication on Twitter, he does
not deny that for him and Fr. Joseph Fessio sj, the founder of Ignatius Press
there are no objective cases of non Catholics saved with the baptism of desire(
LG 14) or in invincible ignorance(LG
16).
I had mentioned that Vatican Council II interpreted rationally supports the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (ENS) as defined by three Church Councils including the Councils of Florence 1441, Cantate Domino, Council of Florence 1441.Vatican Council II is traditional.-Lionel Andrades
