False?

Hmm.... seems to me that Pius X and the Current Magisterium says exactly what I stated in my above comments.

I've discussed salvation with many Catholics and this is precisely the language they use.

"Implicit Desire" means that anyone can be saved.

Plus this just affirms my point of works righteousness.

"sincerely seeking God's truth and doing Gods will as best as a person can."

Nowhere in there does it mention having faith in Christ.

Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. - Galatians 2:16
