Unless you don’t.

847 Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation.

You Catholics are real hoot now!!!

The key phrase there is “no fault of their own”. When some knows the word of God and still sticks their middle finger up to him, those will be the first to bust hell wide open.
