Pope Benedict XVI is to speak on June 11 at a conference on the theme 'Go out into the whole world.Teach and baptize’ and ‘Discovering the beauty of baptism’.The pope is expected to say non Chrtisian babies do not need the baptism of water for salvation and they will be saved, because of the mercy of God, even with Original Sin on their soul.He has already said that non Catholic adults do not have to convert into the Church for salvation. So he is expected to present another reason why we should go out into the whole world…
This positionof the Holy Father is contrary to Tradition, the dogma extra eccesiam nulla salus, the Catechism of the Catholic Chruch N.1257 and the Bible on baptism (John 3:5).It is a hermeneutic of rupture.
This new doctrine of the pope is considered ‘development’ as explained in the International Theological Commission(ITC) papers The Hope of Salvation for Infants Who Die without Being Baptised (2007) and Christianity and the World Religions (1997). Both these papers carry an oversight. They have an objective factual error. This is the Richard Cushing Error.This oversight is the basis , one of the theological pegs for the non traditional speculation on the fate of unbaptized infants. The two ITC papers approved by the pope assume that those saved with the baptism of desire and invincible ignorance are known to us in the present time. They believe that the understanding of the baptism of desire etc in the Fr.Leonard Feeney case was an historic ‘development of doctrine’. They do not realize, that these cases are not known to us in heaven or on earth.Neither does the pope?
They believe that this development of doctrine is a clear exception to the dogma extra eclessiam nulla salus. So if there can be an exception to the dogma on the need for all adults to receive the baptism of water it is reasoned, why can there not be exceptions for infants?
And if the exceptions can be there in a few cases then why not in general for all non Christians? This is how the argument goes for them. So the ITC issued the paper on Limbo in 2007 based on a factual error: being able to see people on earth saved with the baptism of desire etc.
Like the little boy who cried "The Emperor has no clothes!" in the Hans Christian Anderson fable , someone has to shout out to the pope "We don’t know anyone saved in heaven or on earth with the baptism of desire or in invincible ignorance!”
The pope who says non Christian babies are saved without the baptism of water and with Original Sin on their soul, and still do not go to Hell or Limbo, also says, due to foreign pressure, that Jews do not have to convert in the present times.He will speak next month on the need to go out and proclaim the Good News and baptise, when he also says, that all non Christians are saved, as infants and adults with Original Sin and they do not need the baptism of water.So why go out...?
Pope Benedict is our pope and we love him.I wish he would clarify that there are no known exceptions of people saved with the baptism of desire and in invincible ignorance and so there cannot be any known exception to the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. So everyone , for salvation, needs to remove Original Sin with the baptism of water.
He should not confuse Catholics and say that the Church knows of no means to eternal beatitude other than the baptism of water (CCC 1257) and ALSO say there are known exceptions of....He assumes there are known exceptions because he does not recognize the Richard Cushing Error.
