There is so much of confusion. The Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) priests could know that the last Chapter of the SSPX has not conceded any ground and made an important announcement which was an end to a long standing error. Doctrinally it has said there cannot be an interpretation of Vatican Council II with known exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. It is calling the attention of its 590-plus priests to this observation. If there are no known exceptions to the dogma then the SSPX understanding of Vatican Council II has changed fundamentally.
In the past the SSPX was using the liberal's interpretation of the Council. They have thrown that out. They are now calling upon their priests, through the communiqué, to see Vatican council II as a traditional Council which affirms the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the Syllabus of Errors.The SSPX has brought Vatican Council II back in line with Sacred Tradition.
Father Hewko mentions the importance of the Syllabus of Errors and Pascendi. Vatican Council II without the Richard Cushing error does not contradict these two documents.
Vatican Council II says Christ is not an option. In Ad Gentes 7 it says all need Catholic Faith and the baptism of water for salvation( to avoid Hell). All need Catholic Faith, including Protestants.-Lionel Andrades

At some point, Church history will recognize that the Cardinal Cushing versus Father Leonard Feeney stance on Salvation was a critical juncture of truth versus error. The path we went down was the Cushing path which will be reversed, clarified and healed.
