studying 'Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus' and Fr. Feeney
latest #16
and the followers are HARDheaded, from what I can tell
Fr. Z defended Fr. Feeney a couple months ago in passing
Fr. Feeney was reconciled to the Church WITHOUT having to recant his position on EENS
the more I keep studying, the further I identify myself as a "feeneyite"... he's not wrong about EENS
"I call to mind also the situation of the late Fr. Leonard Feeney, SJ, and his "wildcat group" the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary "
"They took a black and white position on the Church’s true teaching that "outside the Church there is no salvation"
"This got them in hot water with the Holy See. Eventually an understanding was hammered out."
"The so-called "Feeneyites" were able to be in union with the Church"
but without having to abjure their position about extra Ecclesiam nulla salus."
