I stand on the side that says if one holds to be true all that the Catholic Church teaches then one has attained the fullness of faith.

Was that the truth the Catholics taught in 1600's or the ones they teach now.

As if Catholic teaching on the matter has changed! By the way, it hasn't.

Yes, but on the flip side many Catholics don’t consider us Protestants saved.

I think that’s an oversimplification. I’d say, from my personal understanding, that given the sanctifying grace available in the Sacraments, its potentially easier for Catholics to enter eternal life than for Protestants.

Looks like he agrees with you.
