Catholic Dioceses of England and Wales websites are full of the same objective error made by D'Costa. Their theology is built upon the ability to see the dead-saved on earth.
Yesterday night I sent Prof. Gavin D'costa the blogpost:
April 24, 2014
I asked him if he had any clarifications or comments to make. He has none of course! How can he say that he can see the dead-saved in England who are known exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus?!
Neither can he quote any text in Vatican Council II which states that these cases saved with 'seeds of the Word' etc are visible to us on earth in the present times to be relevant exceptions.
What I have mentioned in the report critical of his irrational position is not just a personal opinion or theology, it is common sense. In general we humans know that we cannot see the dead with the physical eye.
Prof. DCosta responds
'I discuss this issue in proper and significant detail in the last two chapters of my book, Christianity and the world religions. I do not think I guilty of what you say. Thanks for your comments. Prayers and good wishes'.
Here are the main points of the blogpost which he was unable to deny:-
1.Conference of Bishops of England and Wales infers there are exceptions to the traditional teaching on exclusive salvation in the Catholic Church.
2.There is no text in Vatican Council II which states there are known exceptions yet this is taken for granted by the Bishops.
3.It is an objective error to assume that the deceased saved with 'seeds of the Word' or ' a ray of that Truth' can be named or seen physically.
