Did you not read the rest of my post?

I’ll repeat myself, I do believe in the Church’s teaching of Baptism by Water, by Blood, or by Desire.

I don’t appreciate you parsing my posts to you. And I do consider you to be very much a member of what you described as, “Popes and the rest of the hierarchy have slipped into indifferentism, taking a cavalier attitude about the spiritual danger in which non-Catholics live as a result of being deprived of the ordinary means of salvation.”

For example, from your heretical post #74, “No one can be damned who does what he is convinced is right.” The muslim 911 plane hijackers thought they were doing right. I’m not saying I know they are damned but I’m not going to venture to say they are not, as you have implied.

I should re-word what I wrote: No one can be damned for an action he sincerely believed was right. I did not mean to say or imply that anyone who EVER did something he thought was right on some occasion could never be damned.

It is highly likely that the 9/11 murderers are in Hell. It isn’t self-evident that they thought they were “right.” People commit horrific, gruesome crimes every day. There’s no reason to think they all think they are doing what is “right,” even when, like Hitler, Stalin, Hillary, Obama, and Biden, they spew ideological justifications for their murders and lies.

OTOH, like nearly all Muslim males, the 9/11 murderers were raped throughout childhood and adolescence. How culpable any such men are for their acts of terror is unknowable to us mere mortals.

By what exalted, divine privilege are your posts to be immune from “parsing”? If you don’t want your thought parsed, don’t post them.
