And then will I profess unto them: I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
That quote might be just as applicable to a novus ordo "catholic".  We don't know how God judges a soul, so work out your salvation in fear and trembling as St. Paul says.

From the Baltimore Catechism;

Q. 510. Is it ever possible for one to be saved who does not know the Catholic Church to be the true Church?
A. It is possible for one to be saved who does not know the Catholic Church to be the true Church, provided that person:
1.(1) Has been validly baptized;
2.(2) Firmly believes the religion he professes and practices to be the true religion, and
3.(3) Dies without the guilt of mortal sin on his soul.

It does not matter what he believes. If he does not know that the Church is the True Church, it is he that is at fault, because he ought to know that it is. He is obliged to have found the truth of the Catholic Religion.
This individual firmly believes and practices a meaningless and false religion which will gain him nothing but eternal damnation.
This is all speculation by which to satisfy the human need for a way other than that which the
Lord has set down and reguires of each man who would be saved.

it is pretty much impossible for any non-Catholic over the age of reason to die without mortal sin. without penance that one time they masturbated as a teen will still damn them even if they lived a near perfect life otherwise.

.
Protestants don't believe in Purgatory why would they go there?
.
No Protestant, as a Protestant, can ever go to Heaven this is a defined Catholic dogma and if you don't believe it then you can't go to heaven, either, as if you were Protestant.
.
Then why did padre pio tell his co-monks to pray for the soul of the king of england... who was protestant.

If a person's ignorance is invincible then his judgement is very different from one who was raised as a Catholic. Jesus said, "To whom much is given, much will be required." and also, The servant who knew his master's wishes will recieve more stripes than the one who didn't." The angels sang at the birth of Christ, "et pax hominis bonae voluntatis." (and peace to men of good will.) they did not sing "et pax bonae Catholicam."
