The Sacred Congregation of the Propagation of the Faith, under Pope St. Pius X, in 1907, in answer to a question as to whether Confucius could have been saved, wrote:

“It is not allowed to affirm that Confucius was saved. Christians, when interrogated, must answer that those who die as infidels are damned”.

What does this mean? It is very clear, and really needs no explanations, except in our times, because Catholics have been brainwashed to believe that everyone who is nice to others will go to Heaven.

It is saying that if someone dies an infidel, they are damned. It does not say they may be damned, it says they are damned. For those who answer, no one but God knows who is damned, I answer that  what God knows is irrelevant here, as it is God Himself who is telling us here that if someone dies an infidel, they are damned. That "if  " is a qualifier, without the "if", this means nothing.  It is no coincidence that they use Confucius, as an example, for who could be more "nice" than Confucius?

You can also change that to: It is not allowed to affirm that any non-Catholic was saved. Christians, when interrogated, must answer that those who die as non-Catholics are damned”.

Some typical modernist objections I've been asked on CI:

Q: What if a baptized Protestant had a deathbed conversion that we knew nothing about?
A: That is what is called a qualifier, it changes everything, the person then would not be a Protestant, he would be a Catholic convert. The  Sacred Congregation of the Propagation of the Faith quote above does not apply, the person is a Catholic, not an infidel or a Protestant.

When we are asked about the salvation of the dead of other religions than the Catholic religion we are told to answer "those who die as infidels are damned".

We can't say may they (Billy Graham, the Dali Lama, or Ghandi) rest in peace, for rest in peace means he is in Heaven.

What about bod? All the infidel has to do is desire baptism and he won't be damned after all.  Who cares about this statement? Is this an invitation to judge people? Obviously, the misguided Congregation was mistaken. The SCPF and Pius X are blowing it big time.  Saint stories, catechisms and theologians prove that desire alone can save people despite what Scripture and the Church teach, and since no one knows if someone got bod and went to heaven, then it's probably a sin to say infidels go to hell.

 Sorry for bringing up the subject out of its place.

Ah, but what if some angel appeared to Confucius as he lay dying, taught him the essential mysteries of the faith, and baptized him?

Oh wait, it gets crazier than that...the infidel may be a Catholic without knowing it....An anonymus Catholic in disguise so to speak.

And to think that the vast majority of Traditional Catholics are under this belief, I simply do not understand it! It must be that sentimentalist wishful thinking and attachment to creatures completely eclipse in their minds the truths which God has clearly revealed.

I can only imagine telling some non-Catholic he is actually an anonymous Catholic... he'd probably punch my lights out. 

the thing is: If we do not warn people about Hell and how most go there, we will be at least somewhat complicit (probably more than somewhat complicit) in them ending up there. A lot of Catholics are afraid to let the world know they are Catholic, self included at times. And yet I don't know what we are afraid of, really. Catholicism has already been beaten back so much... and the thing is, Catholicism is what this world needs. The devil is stronger than we are, unless we are deep into Christ, and it is not always easy to be that 24/7... but anyway...  

Yea, we can easily find ourselves skulking around like Joseph of Arimathea.  At least Scripture described him as a good man.    :)
