However there would be tension with their bishops and others for whom the Council is a break with the dogma

Brother Andre Marie,
Do you'll still affirm the rigorist interpretation of extra ecclesiam nulla salus and while doing so put aside Vatican Council II ?The Council and extra ecclesiam nulla salus ( rigorist interpretation) are not compatible.
So how can you say that the St.Benedict Center accepts extra ecclesiam nulla salus on your site?
You will not use my 'empiricist approach to theology' but will use 'a non empiricist approach', in which Lumen Gentium 16 etc are empirical exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus ?

Joanie,
I consider myself a friend of the St.Benedict Centers,( with friends like these who needs enemies!!?? You must be thinking).
I just want them to understand that Vatican Council II supports their ( our) traditional position on extra ecclesiam nulla salus.So it does not have to be either Fr.Leonard Feeney or Vatican Council II.
However there would be tension with their bishops and others for whom the Council is a break with the dogma.I understand this.
