To be in full communion with the Church, which is the keeper of the deposit of faith, one must believe these things.

The Church condemns no person to hell.

Sure it does. It's full of anathemas and teaches that the pope and priests have the power to bind and loose people's sins.

And they do it too, when they ex-communicate someone.

Thanks for the response. Here's the rub...One must believe these things to be in full communion with the Church. The Church teaches that only those who die in a "state of grace" go to heaven. Those who die without paying the "temporal" price of venial sins go to purgatory first. So in order to be in a state of grace, one must be in communion with the Church. Do I have this correct?
