“The Catholic Church is “the single and exclusive channel by which the truth and grace of Christ enter our world of space and time””
Of COURSE he says this, otherwise, why have a Catholic Church at all? There has to be an element of “one true path to salvation” in every denomination or else why would that denomination exist at all?
But, if someone, anyone thinks they can stand between you and your own salvation, I posit that they probably have a self-interest in making you think that is so. Maybe the Catholic Church is that, maybe it isn’t. But there is no profit in doubt, so all churches must say they are the “one true path” to some degree.
I suspect God doesn’t care if you are a Ford man, or a Chevy man, as long as you are driving on the right road.

As long as its not the road of good intentions.
