There
is no denial from Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez, the journalists in Rome and
now the Faculty of Theology at the University of St. Thomas Aquinas, Rome. They
agree with me. For them too LG 8,14,15,16,UR 3,NA 2,GS 22etc in Vatican Council
II refer to only hypothetical cases , physically invisible people in 2024.This
is a given. It is common sense.
So
it means that their concept of Vatican Council II has changed. The Council has
a continuity with Tradition, with the past exclusivist ecclesiology. Ad Gentes
7 says all need faith and baptism for salvation and LG 8 etc are not
exceptions. The Catechism of the Catholic Church (846) says outside the Church
there is no salvation and there are no exceptions known in particular cases in
2024 and none are mentioned in Vatican Council II.
The
Church is saying after Vatican Council II that all non Catholics must enter the
Catholic Church for salvation from Hell (AG 7, LG 14, CCC 845,846 etc).
The
New Theology was based upon their being exceptions for EENS which were
mentioned in the 1949 Letter of the Holy Office to the Archbishop of Boston (LOHO).So
the Church moved from being Ecclesiocentric to only Christocentric, without the
necessity of membership in the Church.
Now
with the Council in harmony with the strict interpretation of the dogma EENS of
the Church Councils (Fourth Lateran Council 1215 etc), there can only be the
old exclusivist ecclesiology with its ecumenism of return to the Catholic
Church.
The
New Theology emerged after the dogma EENS was made obsolete with there being alleged visible cases
of LG 8 etc in the present times.
The
Dominicans are now saying that LG 8 etc are not exceptions for EENS, the
Athanasius Creed, the Syllabus of Errors and the Catechism of Pope Pius X (24Q,
27Q) and the rest of Tradition. There is no extraordinary means of salvation
known to us human beings in real life and the ordinary means of salvation still
is Catholic faith with the baptism of water. So are back to the ecclesiology of the founders of the Order of Preacher.
The
New Theology emerged after the 1949 LOHO wrongly assumed that invisible cases
of the baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance were visible
exceptions for Feeneyite EENS.
Now
restricted by Vatican Council II, Cardinal Fernandez is saying that Judaism,
Islamism, Hinduism and the other ‘great religions’, though they have good
things in them(NA 2), are not paths to salvation and there is the need for Traditional
Mission.
It
means ecclesial organizations and religious communities must switch from the
Christocentric New Evangelization to the Eccesiocentric, Tradition Mission. The
Church returns to the EENS of the missionaries and Magisterium of the 16th
century.
Interpreting LG 8 etc as referring to visible cases in the present times cannot be Magisterial. Since it is irrational and deceptive. It is unethical to continue to interpret Vatican Council II with the same error.
It means that when the
baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance are mentioned in the
Creeds, they are wronly assumed to be visible cases and so the conclusion is non
traditional. This is heretical. A priest cannot offer Holy Mass in any rite by
changing the meaning of the Creeds. He cannot use a false premise, inference and
conclusion, to produce a new version of the three Creeds.
It
also means vocations to the religious life must only interpret Vatican Council
II, rationally. This is obligatory. Young people must not ask to be deceptive.
Also
when making religious vows, obedience must be pledged only to Vatican Council, Creeds, old Councils and the Catechisms interpreted rationally. It would be the same for the
Oath of Office of the Bishop or an Oath Against Modernism. It is the irrational
premise which produces modernism.So the interpretation of Vatican Council II
by the liberals and traditionalists has been modernist all these years.
All
Catholics must interpret the Nicene, Athanasius and Apostles Creed without the
common modernism. They simply have to be rational and honest and things fall into place. W
Also
the Novus Ordo Mass has to follow the past ecclesiology to avoid public heresy
and modernism. -Lionel Andrades

The mainline Church is coming back to Tradition as liberal priest-professors interpret LG 8, 14, 15, 16 UR 3, NA 2, GS 22, etc, as being only hypothetical. They are not objective exceptions in 1965-204, for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS).
