    Could the above be considered a doctrine or a dogma of the Church?

    • It is not a defined dogma far as I know, but it is a doctrine of the Church that many are damned and only few are saved.

    • No, it's not a doctrine of the Church that most men are damned. It is the most probable opinion, but not a doctrine.
    There is a lengthy article on this subject in the "Dictionnaire de théologie catholique".
