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.
It is said that the Blessed Imelda died without mortal sin.

poche, forlon stated "any non-Catholic", why bring up a Catholic example? Applies and oranges.

If a person's ignorance is invincible then his judgement is very different from one who was raised as a Catholic.

Who will contest that?

Father Michael Muller's writing on invincible ignorance has been posted and quoted in threads, many times. It neither saves nor damns a person.

To paraphrase St. Thomas Aquinas, one who keeps the moral law will learn the truths of the faith, by an angel if necessary.

If they make an act of perfect contrition then they can be saved.

Uhm, mortal sin isn't even an issue on the radar if someone is not Catholic, is outside the Church, and does not have supernatural faith.  Perfect contrition is not possible for someone who isn't a Catholic. You guys really have gone full Pelagian, haven't you?
