That is simply false and you cannot and will not back it up

Of course it's true, you just don't have the intellectual honestly to face it.

First, is salvation only possible through the Catholic Church? If you say "no," then you run up against Catholic teaching through the millenia. If you say "yes," then you contradict current teaching.

You cannot nor will not prove it

The Catholic Church btw simply does not teach that the only way to salvation is through it

In fact what it does say is that Jesus was/is her for everyone not just Catholics

So you might want to get over pretending to know what yhe Chirch says about anything without looking at and reading tha Catechism

Honestly, the antocatholicism and willful ignorance of it on FreeRepublic is so hateful it is inbearable

Ths conversation is over

"Is salvation only possible through the Catholic Church? If you say "no," then you run up against Catholic teaching through the millenia. If you say "yes," then you contradict current teaching."

FWD, You seem to lack some of the basic axioms of Catholic thought --- for instance, that while the Sacraments are binding on us, they are not binding on God.

E.g., one must be born again of water and the Holy Spirit (Baptism)in order to be saved; but God can save anyone He wants to save, e.g. the unbaptized criminal crucified next to Him.
