uh not in the way you interpret it. one has to acknowledge that the catholic church is the true way and then turn away from it. however, i'm saying that these non-christians do not acknowledge that the church is the true way. they are adamant believers of their religion and believe theirs is the true way. see the second vatican council's lumen gentium.

No, that statement is still binding and infallible. It was declared in the fourth latreran counsel. The only way someone can be saved outside the church is by invisable ignorance the CCC states.

that is not the teaching of the catholic church today. unum sanctum was directed to french catholics who were unsure of whether to side with the french govt or the church/pope hundreds of years ago during the struggle for power between church, crown, and nobility. those statements must be put into context. also, just because a pope says something, doesn't mean that what he says is the doctrine of the church. any priest or bishop will tell you that the church does not condemn non-catholics.

You say you go through Catholic Teaching. Do you realize the Catholic Church states there is no salvation outside of Christ(the Church)? Unum Sanctum. Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus "Outside the Church there is no salvation".

1) the bible, 2) catholic teaching and catechism, 3) the brain God gave me (basic logic)....the laws of nature that we hold true today (gravity, motion, etc) were established through use of the human brain...its amazing what we can do when we don't taking everything we're told for granted :)

what is your source of authority? where do you go to get your facts and truths from? I'd like to know because you sound like you have a lot of information. Thank you.

i'm not antichrist...i believe Christ is God, but i do not think the entire bible should be taken literally...the bible is God's word says who? the bible? you can't use the book to justify itself...that's circular reasoning

Like I said you are antichrist. Bible is Gods word!
