I thought that the Catholic Church changed a lot after Vatican II. Didn't they throw out Latin and indulgences and I thought that the Pope said that evolution was true? I think that it is clear that the Catholic church has thrown things out so some things they have generate are not "eternal truths".

The message really is that I am a Catholic who will always respect others (Happy Holydays again for whatever reason) but hold, argue, and defend the idea that heaven is for Catholics only (and Jews).
As far you thinking that god is not letting non-Catholics/Jews into heaven I'm fairly certain your opinion counts for nothing in gods mind. To pretend that you "respect others" and then tell them they are damned to hell in the same breath seems a bit hard to swallow. That doesn't sound like respect.
