They agree that there are factual errors made in the books being sold by the Society of St.Pius X ( SSPX).
It is difficult for them to make a U-turn.
They cannot say :-
1. Vatican Council II does not contradict the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
2. It does not contradict the traditional teaching on other religions and Christian communities and churches.
3. The Letter of the Holy Office 1949 to the Archbishop of Boston supported Fr.Leonard Feeney on the dogma.He was not excommunicated for heresy but for disobedience.
The same factual error has been made by speakers at SSPX Conferences , including those at Rimini, Italy.
At these conferences instead of assuming that all salvation mentioned in Vatican Council II as being invisible for us it is assumed that these cases are physically visible for us. So instead of affirming implicit for us baptism of desire they imply there is explicit for us baptism of desire. Then it is further assumed that Vatican Council contradicts the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus because of these visible- for- us cases now saved and existing in Heaven.
The District Superior of the SSPX in Italy, Fr. Pierpaolo Petrucci, who approved the funeral Mass of Erich Priebke and then issued a clarification in the media, has not denied that there are errors in books sold by the SSPX. This includes an article he wrote in Italian in one of the books being sold in Italy.
There is to be no clarification since it is obvious we cannot see the dead on earth and the SSPX books have assumed we can.
