The first goal of any New Evangelization needs to be the purging of the Protestant heresy from within the Church and a desire to bring Protestants into the one fold with one shepherd.-Michael Voris

FATHER LEONARD FEENEY'S COMMUNITY WEBSITE
Soon there could be a report on the website of the community of Fr. Leonard Feeney. It will be defending the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. They have been admirably defending the dogma for all of us all these years, while we have been confused with the baptism of desire and being saved with invincible ignorance.
The report on their website defending the dogma however will be restricted to theology. Theologically it will be critical of the baptism of desire. Only in theology.
The report will not mention that we do not know any case of the baptism of desire in 2012.So it is not an issue with the dogma.This point is not mentioned when the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) cites the baptism of desire and are critical of Fr. Leonard Feeney.Neither have they used this approach with Jeff Mirus at Catholic Culture.
If the SSPX, Fr. Francois Laisney etc, are similar to the Vatican on this issue, as a comment on this blog says, it is also because the SSPX was never told that the baptism of desire is not a known exception in the present times(2012).
So the SSPX counters with theology that assumes implicit desire is explicit and known to us. Jeff Mirus has theology with explicitly known baptism of desire. Since Mirus believes the baptism of desire etc are explicit for us, he goes further and assumes that Vatican Council II contradicts the dogma on exclusive salvation.
Theologically I can agree with the supporters of Fr. Leonard Feeney, the St. Benedict Centers. Since they hold on to the dogma and the traditional teachings on this issue, none of which mention an explicitly known baptism of desire.
They could still continue with their good theological approach (without the explicit baptism of desire) and also mention there are no cases of implicit desire or being saved in invincible ignorance that we know of in 2012. So there are no known exceptions to the dogma on exclusive salvation in only the Catholic Church-Lionel Andrades
