I don't give a shit about Aquinas.
You can do all the quotes you want, you are denying the effectiveness of the Baptism of Desire.
You, dishonestly attempting to claim I am attempting "wrest out of control" is nothing but dishonesty. The Catechism says what it does. Period.
It also says that humans absolutely have freedom of conscience .. if someone honestly does not believe, and acting in good conscience, they are saved.
How is it you are so ignorant of what your church teaches ?
No one said anything about belief, idiot. You just revel in the idea only believers go to heaven. That is not what your church teaches.
The Catechism says you're wrong. So does St. Paul :
Romans 3:22 "This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile,
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Nothing about baptism.
When the young man in Matthew asked what he has to do to gain eternal life, Jesus told him, "Keep the commandments". That's it. Period.
Oh well, we can sign you up for Catholicism 101.
Aquinas said some pretty stupid shit.
He said he thought women were stupid. "The reason the tempter went to Eve first was that the light of reason shone less brightly in her". LOLOL
He said going to heaven and seeing god was not quite all it was cracked up to be. You could be happier, and in fact you got to be so according the vindictive Angelic Doctor :
You got to see the suffering of your enemies in hell, and that idea made him happy and would make those in heaven happier. LOLOL
Best to make some enemies, so you can watch them suffer.

Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
