My challenge to you was to provide any quotation from before 1800 where the Church taught the heresy of "implicit faith," embraced, unfortunately, by Pius IX, Pius X, Pius XII, and Archbishop Archbishop Lefebvre. Saint Thomas, once again, speaks the mind of the Church:
"Unbelief has a double sense. First, it can be taken purely negatively; thus a man is called an unbeliever solely because he does not possess faith. Secondly, by way of opposition to faith; thus when a man refuses to hear of the faith or even contemns it, according to Isaiah, Who has believed our report? This is where the full nature of unbelief, properly speaking is found, and where the sin lies.
If, however, unbelief be taken just negatively, as in those who have heard nothing about the faith, it bears the character, not of fault, but of penalty, because their ignorance of divine things is the result of the sin of our first parents. Those who are unbelievers in this sense are condemned on account of other sins, which cannot be forgiven without faith; they are not condemned for the sin of unbelief." (Summa Theologica II, II, 10, 1.)
This issue has been resolved, at least for me.
