All the reports/articles
on Vatican Council II on the website of the Vatican are now obsolete. They are
written with Cushingism and not Feeneyism.It is the same for the SSPX websites
and those of the sedevacantists (CMRI, MHT, and MHFM) websites.
At the University of St.
Anselm Rome, Department of Liturgy, they are interpreting Vatican Council II
irrationally and not rationally. All this has been approved by Cardinal Arthur Roche
who calls it the ‘new magisterium’ of the Church. This same modernism is there
at Mass organized by the Latin Mass Societies of England and Wales and Una
Voce. The liberals and traditionalist have been choosing Cushingism as a theology.
This is the theology of the National Catholic Reporter and Fr. John Zuhlsdorf.
If LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR
3, NA 2, GS 22 etc are seen as only hypothetical cases then the interpretation
is rational. If they are seen as objective cases in 2023, known non Catholics
saved outside the Church, without faith and the baptism of water, then this
interpretation is irrational.
Either way, rational or
irrational, it has a bearing on how we interpret the Creeds, Catechisms and
Councils. Ecclesiology is traditional or non traditional.
The websites of the Vatican
and the SSPX interpret LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc, as exceptions
for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS). So they imply that LG 8 etc
refer to physically visible cases in 1965-2023. Invisible people cannot be
exceptions for the dogma EENS and the Athanasius Creed.
For example, if there is
an apple in a box of oranges then the apple is an exception because it is
different, but also because it is there in that box. If it was not there in
that box it would not be an exception.
If anyone is saved
according to LG 8, LG 14, LG 16 etc, it can only be known to God. We cannot say
that there is, for example, a St.Emerentiana in Heaven saved without the
baptism of water. We cannot know on earth. No one has seen her in Heaven
without the baptism of water.
We cannot say that the
Good Thief (Dismas) is in Heaven without the baptism of water. We cannot know
if he was baptized. Even if he was in Heaven without the baptism of water, we
do not know of any Dismas in 1965-2023 who could be an exception for the dogma
EENS.
We know that for salvation,
all need faith and the baptism of water, this is the norm, and we cannot
project any particular person as being an exception. - Lionel Andrades
