"It seems you've lost your dogma."

No, I have not.

There is nothing in the Church's constant teaching which contradicts Blessed Pius IX.

Read carefully "Dominus Jesus". Here are some pertinent passages:

(from Note #20)
Above all else, it must be firmly believed that ìthe Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and baptism (cf. Mk 16:16; Jn 3:5), and thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men enter through baptism as through a doorî.77 This doctrine must not be set against the universal salvific will of God (cf. 1 Tim 2:4); ìit is necessary to keep these two truths together, namely, the real possibility of salvation in Christ for all mankind and the necessity of the Church for this salvationî.78

22. With the coming of the Saviour Jesus Christ, God has willed that the Church founded by him be the instrument for the salvation of all humanity (cf. Acts 17:30-31).90 This truth of faith does not lessen the sincere respect which the Church has for the religions of the world, but at the same time, it rules out, in a radical way, that mentality of indifferentism ìcharacterized by a religious relativism which leads to the belief that ëone religion is as good as another'î.91 If it is true that the followers of other religions can receive divine grace, it is also certain that objectively speaking they are in a gravely deficient situation in comparison with those who, in the Church, have the fullness of the means of salvation.92
