Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary : Vatican Council II does not contradict 'the rigorist interpretation' of the dogma

The bishops of the diocese of Worcester and Manchester,USA accept Vatican Council II as a break with the rigorist interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.They recognise the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, in their diocese, who affirm this interpretation of the dogma,which is not compatible with Vatican Council II as interpreted by them.
Sisters, Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
So the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary are not really accepting Vatican Council II, as do the bishops of their diocese- and they are allowed to offer the Traditional Latin Mass.
They have priests from the diocese of Worcester and Manchester, and other U.S dioceses, who offer the Traditional Latin Mass at their chapels.They are recognised by the diocese bishops who reject the traditional interpretation of the dogma.
The solution for the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is to tell their respective bishop they they accept Vatican Council II in perfect agreement with the rigorist interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.They do not deny Vatican Council II.Vatican Council II is traditional.
How is it traditional?
Since 1) there are no visible exceptions to the dogma in 2014-2015 and 2) no where in Vatican Council II is it said that there are visible and known exceptions.( if there are no such cases how can there be exceptions?).
This is the crucial point. If there are no known and visible exceptions, no objective cases, then there are no exceptions.
If we cannot name any exception , someone personally known, there are no exceptions.
This is elementary.
So obviously the bishops do not know of any exception and neither can they cite any text in Vatican Council II which says there are exceptions.UR 3,NA 2,LG 16,LG 8, none of them say there are known exceptions to the dogma.
There could be someone saved in 'imperfect communion with the Church' (UR 3).This year there could have been many.Who knows? They are not known to us.So they cannot be exceptions to the dogma.UR 3 does not contradict the rigorist interpretation of extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
So which passage will the bishop cite in Vatican Council II which contradicts the dogma?
NA 2? Only God can know of someone in December 2014  saved with ' a ray of the Truth'. So this is not an exception to all needing to convert this year for salvation.
'Seeds of the Word'(AG 11).There are no known cases. They are invisible for the bishops. We still do not have an exception to the dogma.
So the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary should now ask their bishop and the priests who offer Holy Mass at their chapels, to please accept Vatican Council II.
They should insist that they accept Vatican Council II. Presently they do not - with their exception-theory.
They must also tell their bishops that the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary endorse Vatican Council II in its entirety with respect to the dogma.There are no ambigous passages relative to extra ecclesiam nulla salus.So they also affirm 'the rigorist interpretation' of the salvation- dogma.They are in accord with the Church Councils, the popes, saints ,Vatican Council II (AG 7,LG 14) and Fr.Leonard Feeney of Boston.
