"This is not an avowing of Universalism on my part --- I believe this to be an error --- "
I believe Universalism to be an error. I do not avow it and the Catholic Church does not avow it.
Re-reading it with the rest of the sentence, it comes off garbled. (Wince.) Thanks for pointing this out.
I understood you perfectly' but then I pretty much know what your belief system is thus do not read negativity into what you say!
