PRESIDENT SERGIO MATARELLA AND POPE LEO CHOOSE AN IRRATIONAL AND UNETHICAL INTERPRETATION OF VATICAN COUNCIL II
President Sergio Mattarella and Pope Leo interpret Vatican Council II irrationally and unethically. It was the same with the former U.S President, Joe Biden, a Catholic. There was no denial from the United States State Department and the U.S embassy in Rome. They agree with me.They interpret Vatican Council II irrationally and unethically when they choose a false premise and inference. In this way the conclusion is nontraditional and liberal. We now know that LG 8, 14, 15, 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II can only be hypothetical. This is something obvious. So there is no denial from the United States State Department and the U.S embassy in Rome. The former President of the United States and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) are unethical in their interpretation of Vatican Council II, the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Creeds and Councils.
In the same way the president of Italy and Pope Leo choose to confuse LG 8, 14, 15, 16, UR 3, NA 2, and GS 22 etc as being physically visible examples of salvation outside the Catholic Church in 1965-2026. Then it is wrongly concluded that Vatican Council II has exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus of three Church Councils which defined it. Exceptioins are also projected for the the ecclesiocentrism of the Athanasius Creed and the Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX ( ecumenism of return to the Catholic Church).
The Chief Rabbinate of Israel and the ADL also have to correct their interpretation of Vatican Council II.
They support a dishonest interpretation of Vatican Council II etc, which can be verified objectively. This is a secular issue.
SOMETHING OBVIOUS
Cardinals Fernandez, Zuppi and Gambetti agree with me in Rome that there are no physically visible cases of LG 8, 14, 15, 16, UR 3, NA 2, and GS 22 etc, as referred to in Vatican Council II. In practical life we cannot see or meet anyone saved in invincible ignorance or the baptism of desire. So Vatican Council II does not have any practical exception for the dogma outside the Church there is no salvation, as held by the Apostles and the Magisterium in the Middle Ages.This is something obvious.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) must clarify that LG 8 etc refer to invisible cases in 1949-2026. The Letter of the Holy Office 1949 to the Archbishop of Boston made an objective mistake. It confused invisible cases of being saved with the baptism of desire as being visible exceptions for traditional extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) ; Feeneyite EENS.
VC2 RATIONAL ALIGNED WITH EENS
Whoever affirms Vatican Council II rationally i.e LG 8 etc, refer to invisible cases in 2026 would also be affirming the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, with no known exceptions. He would be saying that all need Catholic faith and the baptism of water for salvation ( Ad Gentes 7, Vatican Council II).
AD GENTES 7 ALIGNED WITH EENS
Therefore, all must be converted to Him, made known by the Church's preaching, and all must be incorporated into Him by baptism and into the Church which is His body. For Christ Himself "by stressing in express language the necessity of faith and baptism (cf. Mark 16:16; John 3:5), at the same time confirmed the necessity of the Church, into which men enter by baptism, as by a door.-Ad Gentes 7, Vatican Council II.
LUMEN GENTIUM 14 BLUE AND FEENEYITE
This Sacred Council wishes to turn its attention firstly to the Catholic faithful. Basing itself upon Sacred Scripture and Tradition, it teaches that the Church, now sojourning on earth as an exile, is necessary for salvation. Christ, present to us in His Body, which is the Church, is the one Mediator and the unique way of salvation. In explicit terms He Himself affirmed the necessity of faith and baptism) and thereby affirmed also the necessity of the Church, for through baptism as through a door men enter the Church.-Lumen Gentium 14, Vatican Council II.
IN THE FOLLOWING PASSAGES THE LINES MARKED IN RED REFER TO HYPOTHETICAL CASES, INVISIBLE PEOPLE IN 2026. SO THEY ARE NOT OBJECTIVE EXAMPLES OF SALVATION OUTSIDE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN THE PRESENT TIMES. THEY ARE NOT EXPLICIT EXCEPTIONS FOR THE DOGMA EXTRA ECCLESIAM NULLA SALUS, THE ATHANASIUS CREED ETC. SO VATICAN COUNCIL II IS NOT A RUPTURE WITH TRADITION.
This Church constituted and organized in the world as a society, subsists in the Catholic Church, which is governed by the successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him,(13*) although many elements of sanctification and of truth are found outside of its visible structure. These elements, as gifts belonging to the Church of Christ, are forces impelling toward catholic unity.- Lumen Gentium 8, Vatican Council II
Catechumens who, moved by the Holy Spirit, seek with explicit intention to be incorporated into the Church are by that very intention joined with her. With love and solicitude Mother Church already embraces them as her own. - Lumen Gentium 14, Vatican Council II
But the plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator… Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience.- Lumen Gentium 16, Vatican Council II.
Moreover, some and even very many of the significant elements and endowments which together go to build up and give life to the Church itself, can exist outside the visible boundaries of the Catholic Church: the written word of God; the life of grace; faith, hope and charity, with the other interior gifts of the Holy Spirit, and visible elements too. All of these, which come from Christ and lead back to Christ, belong by right to the one Church of Christ.
The brethren divided from us also use many liturgical actions of the Christian religion. These most certainly can truly engender a life of grace in ways that vary according to the condition of each Church or Community. These liturgical actions must be regarded as capable of giving access to the community of salvation. – Unitatis Redintigratio 3 Vatican Council II
The Catholic Church rejects nothing that is true and holy in these religions. She regards with sincere reverence those ways of conduct and of life, those precepts and teachings which, though differing in many aspects from the ones she holds and sets forth, nonetheless often reflect a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men. – Nostra Aetate 2, Vatican Council II.
All this holds true not only for Christians, but for all men of good will in whose hearts grace works in an unseen way. For, since Christ died for all men,(32) and since the ultimate vocation of man is in fact one, and divine, we ought to believe that the Holy Spirit in a manner known only to God offers to every man the possibility of being associated with this paschal mystery.- Gaudium et Specs 22, Vatican Council II
The United States State Department must clarify that LG 8,14,15,16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II refer to hypothetical cases only. They are not physically visible cases in 1965-2026.The same clarification must be made by the Italian President’s Office and the Vatican.
When an irrational premise is used I refer to it as Cushingism.When there is a rational premise, I refer to it as Feeneyism.
We have a moral obligation to choose only Feeneyism.
