Heresy in Amoris Latitiae ?

Furthermore, in this case, as with a myriad of other cases over the last half century, we are not in a situation of a Pope explicitly teaching heresy. We can say whatever we like about how he should have been clearer, should have reiterated this or that teaching: perhaps he should. But he is not publicly and explicitly teaching heresy. This is important; it makes a big difference. Popes can teach heresy, they are not protected from doing that except under very specific conditions, and it has happened more than once in the history of the Church.-Joseph Shaw

In the previous blog post 1 I mentioned that 'Catholics are not aware of the false premise and inference in the liberal moral and salvation theology of the Catechism of the Catholic Church(1992).It is now expressed in Amoris Latitiae (AL).'

Pope Francis uses the irrational premise and inference in his moral and salvation theology and so does Pope Benedict. They use an irrationality to change traditional teachings on morals and faith( salvation).

The pope cannot say that any particular couple  living together will  not be deprived of sanctifying grace and so will not go to Hell.He cannot say that any such couple who died immediately would not go to Hell. There is no way he could know. There is no way a pastor or confessor would know that a couple living together is not on the way to Hell.

When AL puts forward  theoretical situations which suggest that there could be 'exceptions' this is false.There is no way that we humans can say that a couple is  not on the way to Hell or is an ' exception', to the orientation towards Hell for living in mortal sin.Mortal sin is always objective and there cannot be a known exception of a couple who will not go to Hell unless they change their lifestyle and receive absolution in the Confessional.
This is the teaching of the Church to avoid Hell and it is not just some 'rule'.

By assuming hypothetical cases are known exceptions to the teaching on concubinage and mortal sin the pope has discarded traditional doctrine.He has rejected the teaching on mortal sin and  concubinage and that too with an irrationality.

AL says  Hence it is (sic) can no longer simply be said that all those in any “irregular” situation are living in a state of mortal sin and are deprived of sanctifying grace." (#301).

This is heresy.

I  mentioned in a previous post how hypothetical cases are assumed to be explicit, personally known.Then these invisible  cases are inferred to be known exceptions to the moral teachings of the Church. 
Similarly there are hypothetical cases which are assumed to be explicit and personally known to be exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla  salus(EENS)  as it was interpreted in the 16th century. This too is heresy.
When hypothetical cases are assumed to be known exceptions to the dogma EENS we have a change in our understanding of the Nicene Creed and the Athanasius Creed.
We are dealing with the stuff of heresy, first class heresy in the hierarchy of truths of Pope John Paul II.
AL says  Hence it is (sic) can no longer simply be said that all those in any “irregular” situation are living in a state of mortal sin and are deprived of sanctifying grace." (#301).
Theologically, the pope is saying that there are known exceptions to the traditional teachings on adultery, concubinage and mortal sin - and we know he cannot know of any exception.
How can there be known exceptions? Yet throughout AL there are references to these exceptions as if they are personaly known cases of couples who will not go to Hell.
If it is said that this was the reasoning in the Catechism then it is irrationality and heresy there too. How can it be possible for us human beings to know of  exceptions to the traditional teachings on morals and faith ? This is irrational, non traditional and heretical.-Lionel Andrades
