Lay Catholics who would want to see a reconciliation between the Vatican and the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) please write to the Superior Generals of the major religious communities, call a press conference addressed to them.
Ask them:-
1.Where does Vatican Council II state that we know non Catholics saved in invincible ignorance etc? How can these cases be visible to us?
2. When Vatican Council II does not state that we know anyone saved in the present times with a good conscience (Lumen Gentium 16) how can LG 16 be an exception to the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus or the Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX?
3. When being saved in invincible ignorance and a good conscience is just acknowledged in Vatican Council II and there are no known exceptions then Vatican Council II is a traditionalist Council with pro.-SSPX values?
4.Since LG 16 refers to potential, implicit cases saved and not explicitly known non Catholics in the present times, it does not contradict Ad Gentes 7 which states all need Catholic Faith and the baptism of water for salvation?
5. Ad Gentes 7 indicates all non Catholics are oriented to Hell unless they convert with Catholic Faith and the baptism of water? All Christian communities need Catholic Faith for salvation. Orthodox Christians and Protestants need to convert with Catholic Faith (AG 7) for salvation?
6. Ad Gentes 7 and Nostra Aetate 4 (which says the Church is the new people of God) indicates non Catholics have a moral duty to enter the Church, which is the one true faith? Even though they are physically free to follow their religion they are obliged to convert into the only Church God the Father wants all people to be united in (CCC 845)?
7. The SSPX should be free to accept Vatican Council II in accord with the Syllabus of Errors, the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the Catechism of the Catholic Church (845, 846, 1257)?-Lionel Andrades
