Do all non Catholics go to hell?

[jon707]

I have recently returned to the church after a long pause (32 years) while doing some research to bolster my faith.

I ran across a group called “Most Holy Family Monastery”.

I do not wish for you to publish their name as I do not want to lead others to them, but I just wondered what your take is on this group? I must say they have brought out a few points that I have struggled with. In fact they have raised up some serious fear in my thinking.

Please give me your honest opinion on whether or not any of their points have any validity. The main scary thought they give is that most Catholics are going to hell and that all non Catholics are going straight to hell…that thought is basically what I would like your opinion on…thank you.
