In 1885 at Baltimore the Americans told others via the catechism to say being saved in implicit desire or martyrdom were baptisms. This was an opinion. Then in 1949 the Americansists told Fr.Leonard Feeney that being saved in implicit desire(Baptism of desire- BOD) and in martyrdon( baptism of blood- BOB) were exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS).They cited the Baltimore and Pius X Catechism.
In 1995, after over a hundred years , the Catechism of the Catholic Church of Pope John Paul II did away with the dogma EENS.The Americanists were successful.
They brought a new doctrine into the the Church. BOD and BOB were made relevant to EENS.
They brought a new doctrine into the the Church. BOD and BOB were made relevant to EENS.
In 1885 or 1995 - no one knew of a single case of BOB and BOD.Yet they were considered exceptions to all formally needing to enter the Church.They were exceptions to Jesus' teaching in the Bible.(John 3:5, Mark.16:16).
An Americanist theory in Baltimore became the basis to remove a defined dogma. The theory from Baltimore was confirmed at Boston in 1949. The dogma on exclusive salvation was eliminated.
People accepted it world wide as did Pope Pius XII and his cardinals.For the people the magisterium could not make a mistake.Mission accomplished!
BUT WHERE ON EARTH ARE THE EXCEPTIONS?
But where are these exceptions ? What are their names and surnames? No one knows who they are. Yet they are exceptions!
How could they know at Baltimore in 1885 the name of someone who is saved without 'faith and baptism'?
So how could they say that there were three baptisms(water,desire,blood) when the Nicene Creed says there is only one baptism, the baptism of water? How could the BOD and BOB be relevant to the baptism of water when we do not, and cannot know any such case on earth?
VATICAN COUNCIL II'S MANY BAPTISMS
Things were going well for the Americanist movement in the USA. At Vatican Council II (1965) with no opposition on this point, they increased the number of 'baptisms'. It was assumed that non Catholics are saved outside the Church with 'the seeds of the Word'(AG 11), a ray of the Truth'(NA 2), imperfect communion with the Church'(UR 3) etc ( the text though does not say it)

So there is salvation outside the Church according to the Americanists and the dogma no more applies to the Church.This is magisterial.Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger accepted this in 1995 when he issued the Catechism at Vatican City.
So we have a new doctrine in the Catholic Church. The liberal professors at Catholic seminaries in Rome call it ' a development of doctrine'. The development is also called the New Theology or the new ecclesiology.
It is based on being and knowing non existent cases on earth and then assuming they are an exception to the pre-1885 dogma EENS.
Since 1885 catechists are expected to teach the new doctrine that says 1) there three baptisms 2) they are all explicit, seen visibly like the baptism of water 3) they are exceptions to the Feeneyite version of EENS.
All catechists since the 1885 Baltimore Catechims are expected to teach this irrationality.
If you do not affirm the New Irrational Theology then you are considered a sedevacantist or traditionalist.The trads and sedes reject Vatican Council II in which LG 16, LG 8, NA 2, UR 3 refer to 1) baptisms like the baptism of water,2) exclude the baptism of water 3) and are exceptions to pre-1885 EENS. The trads and sedes are correct and should keeping rejecting this irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II.
However if I say I am not a sede or trad and that I accept Vatican Council II in which LG 16,LG 8 etc are 1) not visible, 2) include the baptism of water and 3) do not contradict EENS- huh?!!!-they don't know what you mean.
Since it is not there in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (1995).
So we have to keep saying I accept Vatican Council II in which LG 16,LG 8 etc are 1) not visible, 2) LG 16, LG 8,UR 3, NA 2 etc include the baptism of water and 3) do not contradict EENS.
Tell it to others.
We can keep saying it until Catholics understand and future catechists know the truth.

Baptism
Lesson 24 from the Baltimore Cathechism
315. What is Baptism?
Baptism is the sacrament that gives our souls the new life of sanctifying grace by which we become children of God and heirs of heaven.
Amen, amen, I say to thee, unless a man be born again of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. (John 3:5)
316. What sins does Baptism take away?
Baptism takes away original sin; and also actual sin and all the punishment due to them, if the person baptized be guilty of any actual sins and truly sorry for them.
Get up and be baptized and wash away thy sins, calling on his name. (Acts 22:16)
317. What are the effects of the character imprinted on the soul by Baptism?
The effects of the character imprinted on the soul by Baptism are that we become members of the Church, subject to its laws, and capable of receiving other sacraments.
318. Who can administer Baptism?
The priest is the usual minister of Baptism, but if there is danger that someone will die without Baptism, anyone else may and should baptize.
319. How would you give Baptism?
I would give Baptism by pouring ordinary water on the forehead of the person to be baptized, saying while pouring it: "I baptize thee in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost."
320. Why is Baptism necessary for the salvation of all men?
Baptism is necessary for the salvation of all men because Christ has said: "Unless a man be born again of water and the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."
Now they who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls. (Acts 2:41)
321. How can those be saved who through no fault of their own have not received the sacrament of Baptism?
Those who through no fault of their own have not received the sacrament of Baptism can be saved through what is called baptism of blood or baptism of desire.( And they are exceptions to EENS.They can be saved without the Sacrament)
322. How does an unbaptized person receive the baptism of blood?
An unbaptized person receives the baptism of blood when he suffers martyrdom for the faith of Christ.(The link is made with martyrdom and EENS.This will be inferred for the next hundred years.The dogma Cantate Domino, Council of Florence 1441 is contradicted. It is suggested that a person can be saved with the baptism of blood and without the baptism of water )
Greater love than this no one has, that one lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13)
323. How does an unbaptized person receive the baptism of desire?
An unbaptized person receives the baptism of desire when he loves God above all things and desires to do all that is necessary for his salvation.(This is a hypothetical case but it will be infered that it is a an explicit case and so is relevant to EENS.This is an opinion. Yet it will be accepted as an exception to a defined dogma.No one at Baltimore in 1885 personally knew or could know of an exception)
If anyone love me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our abode with him. (John 14:23)
324. When should children be baptized?
Children should be baptized as soon as possible after birth.
325. What sin do Catholic parents commit who put off for a long time, or entirely neglect, the Baptism of their children?
Catholic parents who put off for a long time, or entirely neglect, the Baptism of their children, commit a mortal sin.
326. What do we promise through our godparents in Baptism?
We promise through our godparents in Baptism to renounce the devil and to live according to the teachings of Christ and of His Church.
327. Why is the name of a saint given in Baptism?
The name of a saint is given in Baptism in order that the person baptized may imitate his virtues and have him for a protector.
328. What is the duty of a godparent after Baptism?
The duty of a godparent after Baptism is to see that the child is brought up a good Catholic, if this is not done by the parents.
329. Who should be chosen as godparents for Baptism?
Only Catholics who know their faith and live up to the duties of their religion should be chosen as godparents for Baptism.
