Right on. Welcome to the all-new, revised Catholic religion. By the way, the Church of Christ--which used to BE the Catholic Church-- now merely SUBSISTS in it, according to the Novus Ordo who make it up as they go along. I'm all for friendship with the Jews. But not at the expense of the truth. This is sheer pandering.

"Church of Christ--which used to BE the Catholic Church-- now merely SUBSISTS in it"

Why is this controversial?

If the Church of Christ SUBSISTS in the Catholic Church then surely it cannot SUBSIST anywhere else?

This emphasis allows for the fact that there are those apparently within the visible boundaries of the Catholic Church militant who are not in fact within the Church of Christ - and who consequently will not be saved - e.g. one of the Apostles - Judas.

"Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus" does not imply that within the Church ALL WILL be saved.
