The idea that only Catholics go to heaven IS NOT Catholic Dogma and never has been. This is NOT why Luther broke away. Before Luther the only Church was the Catholic Church. The break was political. Catholic Doctrine has always followed scripture in believing that all who believe in the Death and Resurrection of Jesus have salvation.
