7. Ecumenism<br />

Here the heresy lies in attributing to Jesus Christ a desire<br />

of unity that He never had, because His true idea of union will<br />

be put in place by Him - gathering all people under one fold,<br />

His own! Since Pentecost, in fact, there has been no other<br />

church than the Church of Christ and outside of Her, there is<br />

no other religion, and therefore no one can be saved “outside<br />

of It.” The error here is the will to break with the dogma:<br />

“There is no salvation outside the Church.”<br />

8. Salvation is guaranteed for everyone<br />

The main principle behind the Declaration “Nostra Aetate”<br />

is the same that was justified by Karol Wojtyla stating<br />

that all men have been united with Christ by the simple fact<br />

of the Word Incarnate. Now, that means not recognizing that<br />

every “irreligion” dissenting from the Catholic Church, and<br />

all types of atheism or agnosticism have a right to belong to<br />

the Church of Christ which contradicts the Catholic faith both<br />

in form and in content. However, this “apocatastasis” of parallel<br />

“faiths” and morals, all these personal beliefs or religious<br />

groups take away all respect to our Holy Religion and<br />

show contempt for it.<br />

In any case, these principles of the Conciliar Revolution<br />

were already included in John XX<strong>II</strong>I’s opening speech on<br />

October 11, 1962 and were not new ideas, but rather the bold<br />

and authoritative formulation of errors which had been already<br />

condemned such as the opinion of Origen who believed<br />

in a complete and definite elimination of evil and the<br />

conversion of the damned, thus, the universal “return” of<br />

creatures to God. This hypothesis was condemned by the<br />

Synod of Constantinople in 543(D-S 409-411).<br />
