I am a lifelong Catholic and spent 9 years in Catholic school, and I was never taught that you must be Catholic to be saved. Never.

I spent 11 years in Catholic school, and was never taught that other Christians or Jews weren't going to heaven. Now those who don't believe are another story.

I attended a class in which we studied other religious denominations and what they believed, again was never taught they were going to hell.

Now on the other hand I've been told plenty of times I'm going to hell merely for being catholic.

Yep, me too.

It's unfortunate that Catholic education has been so sadly lacking for a long time, and not just in recent years. It is a Catholic dogma that no one can be saved outside the Catholic Church. This is the highest level teaching with the infallible pronouncement of numerous popes, councils, etc.

My husband went to Catholic school and had to listen to the nuns tell him constantly that his Lutheran grandmother was going to go to hell.
