"Is the Catholic church wrong in what the Catechism states?"

No, you are wrong in pretending to understand what the Church teaches and demanding that all Catholics accept your flawed interpretations.

You could not bend the Church's teachings to your will while still a Catholic and you will fail to do so from the outside. It is obvious to all that you failed as a Catholic because you did not understand the Catechism. Now stop projecting that on to the billion plus Catholics who do not believe as you do.

Are you telling me that all one billion plus Catholics believe in the false doctrine of soul annihilation like you do? And you know this how? Did you ask every one of them personally?

What about the rest of the Catholics here? Do you all believe in soul annihilation as NL says is Catholic teaching? That the unsaved soul ceases to exist instead of suffering eternal torment as the Bible and the Catechism of the Catholic church teach?

What about the rest of the former Catholics?

You know, NL, this would be news to Jesus who said,......

Mark 9:42-48 "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, 'where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.'

Luke 16:22-24 The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried, and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side. And he called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.'

Matthew 13:36- 43 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field." He answered, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom.The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the close of the age, and the reapers are angels. Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the close of the age. The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

Matthew 13:47-50 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind. When it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into containers but threw away the bad. So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
