It looks like the Catholic church is re-asserting itself as the “one true church”, and categorizing all other churches (Christians or not) as both inferior, and incapable of offering genuine post-mortal salvation to their respective members.
Of course many of us (as members of the LDS Church) do this as well.
In my heart and mind, this represents religion at its lowest and most divisive. I understand why churches (and members) feel the need to do this — and I know that many are sincere and even humble in their assertions of exclusive truth and authority — but in the end, it just makes me sad.
There must be a better way.
