Tradition:
"The most Holy Roman Church firmly believes, professes and preaches that none of those existing outside the Catholic Church, not only pagans, but also Jews and heretics and schismatics, can have a share in life eternal; but that they will go into the eternal fire which was prepared for the Devil and his angels, unless before death they are joined with her..." Of Divine Faith, So defined.
Vatican II:
""The separated churches and communities as such, though we believe they suffer from the defects already mentioned, have been by no means deprived of significance and importance in the mystery of salvation. For the Spirit of Christ has not refrained from using them as means of salvation which derive their efficacy from the very fulness of grace and truth entrusted to the Catholic Church." (Decree on Oecuмenism Unitatis Redintegratio, paragraph 3) Formal and Gravel Heresy.
So it is your opinion then, that Vatican II contains only one heresy, strictly so-called?
Upon a cursory examination using the definitions you provided. I intend, in the near future, to use your defintitions to take apart every phrase of every docuмent of Vatican II.
However, I intend to do so honestly; deception and embellishment help no one.
My findings are merely preliminary, and not conclusive: However, a MERELY preliminary investigation of the docuмents in a merely CURSORY manner has yielded ONE POSITIVE HERESY and several theological errors, the effects of which are MORTAL SINS to hold.
As for St. Therese: She said what shea said, I have nothing to apologize for. If she was prone to hope for universal salvation, oh well. Other Saints were also. They are no less saints.
Gregory of Nyssa, St. Gregory the Theologian, St. Maximus the Confessor, etc...They tended toward a universal reconciliation of all things in christ.
They were wrong. But they were by no means Malicious, it is more like it was their private hope. They ALL agreed you couldn't TEACH such an opinion or hope. I see St. Therese doing the same thing. She is not malicious, and it appears to be a private hope of hers. It is not as though she TAUGHT it.
I am not condemning her.
