Salvation within and without the Church?

Gerald continues his series on the documents of Vatican II here, continuing his riff on Lumen Gentium. This is great stuff - maybe I'll be able to do this kind of work some day. Maybe. Anyway, one of his big topics in this post is the concept of salvation outside the Catholic faith, and the teachings of the Council on this issue. The folks over at Totus Pius tackle this subject a little differently; if you read this one, be sure to read the comments as well.
