I certainly don't want them silenced - but I will definitely criticize them for saying so.

The Church does not teach that you are going to Hell.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, the RCC does teach that I am not saved.

"The Church does not teach that you are going to Hell. "

The official church teaching was that "There is no salvation outside the cathic church." When was that nullified?

"The Second Vatican Council's Decree on Ecumenism explains: 'For it is
through Christ's Catholic Church alone, which is the universal help toward
salvation, that the fullness of the means of salvation can be obtained.'"
Pg. 215, #816

"...all salvation comes from Christ the Head through the Church which is
his Body: Basing itself on Scripture and Tradition, the Council teaches
that the Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation..." Pg.
224, #846
