Catholicism, compared to protestantism, does have as doctrine that what you do affects your redemption, whereas protestants have a personal and direct connection to Jesus. So I think the other poster was correct, in a way, although I think this doesn’t contradict what you are saying either. Mainstream catholics kind of believe that you can’t know who god chooses to go to heaven or why, so based on the doctrines of mercy, forgiveness, and grace, then probably everybody goes to heaven. This contradicts Opus Dei weirdos and tradcaths, who adhere to pre Vatican ii doctrine.
