Look, prolific typing and lots of capital letters and rambling on about topics that are relevant perhaps only in your own mind does not change facts.

Outside the Church there is no salvation.

This is a defined dogma. It can never be changed or denied. You have called it a heresy. Wise up.

You are wrong or are taking a very misleading take on the meaning and scandalizing others in your ongoing apologia for a group (SSPX) which is OUTSIDE the Roman Catholic Church by virtue of being in schism but INSIDE the Mystical Body of Christ, but you knew that.

Taking the words literally would consign to hell each and every person who had no exposure to the Scriptures or to baptism. Why then did God write the natural law on the hearts of each of them? We Catholics are NOT Calvinists. If SSPX wants to take the tree house Boyz Club Only tack, go ahead. Just don't call it Catholicism.

If you were right, then all SSPX adherents would be excluded from heaven by virtue of the status as schismatic of the SSPX cult. You are wrong also about Feeneyism which is yet one more heresy piled upon the thousands that went before. Being fully Catholic and in communion with the pope is wisdom enough for me. Sorry about you. Tempus fugit. Memento mori.

Whether or not you regard my posts as relevant or resent emphasis by capitalization causes me no concern given the attitude expressed endlessly by you guys as to the papacy and this magnificent Pope John Paul II. He has the keys. You don't. "Catholic tradition" that rejects papal authority stands any rational definition of Catholic tradition on its head. I am in good company as you are not.
