History shows that numerous popes have declared that those outside the Catholic church are damned to Hell...

There is a difference between "being a Christian" and "being damned to Hell." Even a Catholic inside the Church who dies with an unrepentant and unforgiven mortal sin is damned to Hell. As for the condemnations pronounced by various popes because of heresy, their applications would involve the question of culpability and invincible ignorance, but let us save that for another thread.

There already is a current thread on it...And the message of that thread is that anyone NOT a Catholic is condemned to Hell...No culpability...No invincible ignorance...it’s cut and dried...According to your church, non Catholics go to Hell...
