Bishop Bernard Fellay is not affirming the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) and the Social Reign of Christ the King due to worldly prudence, just as he had to abandon Bishop Richard Williamson since the Left was opposing him.
So the priests of the Society of St.Pius X, Italy are not allowed to say something simple like, "There are no physically visible cases of the BOD,BOB and I.I in Italy in 2018" or " LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, NA 2, UR 3, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II refer to only hypothetical cases in 2018".
So for the Italian priests here, like those who offer the Novus Ordo Mass, this is a sensitive issue. So they will not say in public that "There are no physically visible cases of the BOD,BOB and I.I in Italy in 2018" or " LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, NA 2, UR 3, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II refer to only hypothetical cases in 2018".
For over 40 years the SSPX at Albano, Italy have been interpreting Vatican Council II wrongly. They could not state " LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, NA 2, UR 3, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II refer to only hypothetical cases in 2018".They are following 'the official policy' on Vatican Council II, set by Bishop Bernard Fellay.
For over 40 years they have not been aware that Pope Pius XII made a mistake in the Letter of the Holy Office 1949.BOD, BOB and I.I refer to unknown people.So they were never relevant to EENS as exceptions.This remains an error, upon which the SSPX, New Theology is based.
SSPX publications in Italy criticize Nostra Aetate 2, 'a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men' since the SSPX priests assume that NA 2 refers to known non Catholics saved outside the Church.So NA 2 would be at odds with the old exclusivist ecclesiolgy of the Church for them. To criticize Nostra Aetate and interpret it as a rupture with Tradition is 'official policy', which they have to follow.There is a choice. But they cannot oppose official policy even if it is irrational, non traditional and innovative.

The SSPX Albano criticized Pope John Paul II during his canonization,since Vatican Council II was a rupture with Tradition for them.This was the official policy the Italian priests had to follow, even if they knew that "There are no physically visible cases of the BOD,BOB and I.I in Italy in 2018" or " LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, NA 2, UR 3, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II refer to only hypothetical cases in 2018".
They are not aware that there can be two ways to look at the EENS issue 1) theologically and 2) practically.
Theologically they can say that all need faith and baptism for salvation; all need the baptism of water for Justification and Salvation and, in real life, practically,there are no objective exceptions to EENS for us human beings.-Lionel Andrades
