Yes, they can. THey have the fullness of the 7 sacraments and thus in essence are in reality Fully-Catholic without quite being fully-Catholic as they are not in communion with the Bishop of ROme. Of course, they say the same thing about us.

All salvation is from and thru Christ thrue his body the Church, where the fullness of God’s Grace is present. The Orthodox have the 7 Holy Mysteries/Sacraments.

Boniface VII "we declare, we proclaim, we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff."

So how do you dismiss Boniface and his decree for the Orthodox and non latins?

Seems pretty clear he meant every living human being, does it not?

Was he speaking as a private theologian, not infallible?

There is not one piece of scripture that states that salvation comes thru Jesus' body...Salvation comes only thru the Head...

Bible tells us when we are saved and receive salvation, we are ADDED to the church...The church has nothing to do with any one's salvation...The church is the RESULT of salvation...At least the church of the Bible...

And what about Mary...Now days, every thing we read says salvation comes from Mary...
