    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.

    Q. 511. Why do we say it is only possible for a person to be saved who does not know the CatholicChurch to be the true Church?
    A. We say it is only possible for a person to be saved who does not know the Catholic Church to be the true Church, because the necessary conditions are not often found, especially that of dying in a state of grace without making use of the Sacrament of Penance.

    ...But Ben Shapiro hasn't been baptized, genius. Maybe in his lifetime, he may go the way of the Apostles, or the Ratisbonne brothers and convert and live a pious, Catholic life. But right now, no.

    If his ignorance is invincible then it is possible for him to be saved by the baptism of desire.

    False.  He must also have supernatural faith and supernatural charity; ignorance cannot be salvific but merely exculpatory.  And explicit knowledge of and supernatural faith in the Holy Trinity and the central mysteries of the Lord's Incarnation are required for supernatural faith.

    As a Non-Believing Jєω Ben Shapiro Gets a Free Pass to Heaven from Bishop Barron


    Ben Shapiro recently had Bishop Robert Barron on his show. You can watch the full interview here. I want to draw our attention to one very specific question posed to the Bishop.

    Shapiro : “I’m a Jєω. I follow the Law. Can I go to Heaven”? Part of interview is here.

    That video came up on my Youtube offerings, but I looked at the "Bishop" in the picture and figured it was some Protestant "minister". I never bothered to watch it. Turns out I was right. He's Novus Ordo, same dung in different packaging. He may not even be a valid priest let alone a bishop. Is he effeminate too?

    • Looks like Ben and Bishop Barron both need to visit Cathinfo's Feeney Ghetto... to get some education :farmer:

    Funny how the Jєωs and their hirelings, since the Crucifixion, have constantly tried to get into Heaven through some mysterious backdoor.

    And the Bishop of LA is their boy to open the imaginary door for them.

    The fact that Ben knows 1) the Church exists, 2) there is a pope and a hierarchy, 1 of whom he invited on his show, 3) the story of Jesus Christ, 4) the Church's stance that only good Catholics get to heaven, and 5) that the Church's stance on salvation is so unique that he wanted to ask about it...

    All of this shows Ben's ignorance is NOT invincible in ANY degree.  In fact, Ben's quite knowledgeable and therefore his rejection of the Faith (if he dies in his rejection) prevents his salvation, per Church teaching.

    Yep.  It's interesting how Invincible Ignorance, which was first applied to a jungle native who had never heard about Our Lord, now extends to someone who full well knows about the Church and Christianity.  It started with ignorance of fact, an intellectual thing, and then moved to "doesn't know it to be the true religion" (more an "ignorance of the will" as it were) ... so that those two or three people who have ever lived who knew it to be the true religion and refused to join it anyway are certainly lost.

    "Yep.  Christ is God, and the Church is the True Church He founded and commanded us to join.  But no thanks.  I don't want to enter that Church."  How many of those are there?

    I'll take that a step further... prior to Bp Barron, Shapiro had on a protestant minister (about 3 weeks ago). I watched a 6 minute clip of that interview and found the minister to be pretty straightforward in his explanation as to why Jєωs should embrace Christianity. I actually thought Shapiro might be considering a conversion at that point.
    .
    Then, I watched a couple of clips from this joke of a "bishop" and I felt it was more likely that Shapiro brought this guy on the show just to laugh at Catholicism because I suspect that he knows good and well what the actual teaching of the Catholic Church is on the matter.

    Here is Novus Ordo Watch's take:

    How can they correctly cite Pope Gregory XVI, yet write this:

    Quote
    Note in particular point no. 2: You must profess the True Faith. Pius XII does not say you need only to believe it, regardless of what you profess. This distinction, again, is crucial because it directly impacts the visibility of the Church: While it is possible, through invincible ignorance, to mistakenly assent to a heresy and yet retain the virtue of Faith, if you outwardly profess your adherence to this heresy, you cease to be a member of the Church. (This contradicts Francis’ other error, this time an error of excess contrary to his error of defect being exposed here, according to which all the baptized are members of the Church, regardless of what Faith they profess. This too is heresy.)

    For this reason, the Catholic Church cannot regard individual members of heretical sects as Catholics even if they are not culpable with regard to their heresies and perhaps even possess the virtue of Faith. (The rejection of this all-important consideration is one of the fundamental errors of the False Ecclesiology of Vatican II, which grants “partial communion” to heretics on account of a valid baptism. Please also listen to our podcast on this question.)

    10. In particular, ensure that the faithful are deeply and thoroughly convinced of the truth of the doctrine that the Catholic faith is necessary for attaining salvation.[4] The Catholic laity and clergy should repeatedly offer special thanks to God in public prayers for the priceless gift of the Catholic religion. They should also beseech God to protect the profession of this faith in our country and to keep it unharmed.
