REUTERS MAKES AN OBJECTIVE MISTAKE ON CATHOLIC DOCTRINE AND ECCLESIA DEI/ CDF DO NOT CLARIFY

There are so many reports in the mainstream media which have factual errors in their reporting of Vatican Council II and especially with reference to the Society of St.Pius X. The Ecclesia Dei or the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith or a Vatican media spokesman, have never issued a clarification.

1.
Reuters Religious Editor assumes the dead who are saved are visible on earth.So he implies these deceased are explicit exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus i.e Vatican Council II contradicts the dogma and the Syllabus of Errors .


There was no clarification to this report from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and Ecclesia Dei. It needed to be clarified that implicit salvation is never explicit for us .We cannot see the deceased on earth.Vatican Council II does not state that these cases are visible or that they contradict the salvation dogma.


2.
Vatican Council II (AG 7) is in agreement with the Catholic Church's traditional teaching on other religions and ecumenism. All need Catholic faith and the baptism of water for salvation. So Vatican Council II agrees with the Society of St.Pius ( SSPX ) traditional position on this issue,unless one assumes there are known cases of the deceased saved. Since we cannot see the dead LG 16 (invincible ignorance/ good conscience), LG 8 ( elements of sanctification),AG 11(seeds of the word) etc,.do not contradict AG 7 or the dogma on exclusive salvation in the Catholic Church.So Vatican Council II has not changed the Catholics Church's teachings on other religions as the media reports.


3.
The SSPX has said that they accept Vatican Council II as an historical event.Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre participated in it. At issue is the interpretation of Vatican Council II with the visible dead premise.There is no known salvation outside the church, every on earth needs faith and baptism for salvation. The text of  Vatican council II or the Letter of the Holy Ofice 1949 does not state that there is known salvation.It does not make this non traditional claim.Yet the media implies it does and Catholics assume that this is a fact and the Vatican does not issue a correction.
Implicit desire is part of the deposit of the faith, explicit implicit desire is not.


Being saved in invincible ignorance, a good conscience,seeds of the word,imperfect communion with the church etc are accepted in principle only, as possibilities.Possibilities are not known reality in 2012.
