That's patently false and leads people to believe that Catholics teach that only a Catholic can go to heaven.

What's patently false?

And yes, only Catholics can go to heaven (extra ecclesiam nulla salus). I think what you mean is that certain people who are not literal members of the Church can still go to heaven (against Feenyism). But that is precisely because they are in some mysterious way joined to the Catholic Church which is the only ark of salvation.

Okay, in this context, I agree with you.
