Pope Declares Atheists who "Do Good" are Saved!

"Pope Francis rocked some religious and atheist minds today when he declared that everyone was
redeemed through Jesus, including atheists.
During his homily at Wednesday Mass in Rome, Francis emphasized the importance of "doing good" as a principle that unites all humanity, and a "culture of encounter" to support peace.
Using scripture from the Gospel of Mark, Francis explained how upset Jesus' disciples were that someone outside their group was doing good, according to a report from Vatican Radio."

My Take:

    If this is not enough proof that Roman Catholicism is painting a "wide" and "broad" path to Heaven, I don't know what is. Jesus clearly says:  “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it." (Matthew 7:13)
The Pope's declaration that even Atheists (people who don't even believe in God) are saved is ridiculous! This is a type of universalism teaching, that all people regardless of their beliefs will get into Heaven.
    Jesus was very clear when it came to how a person enters Heaven:
  •  "Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)
  • "he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit;" (Titus 3:5)
  • "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God." (Ephesians 2:8,9)  
What the Pope says about even Atheists "doing good" to enter Heaven, is a direct contradiction to the teachings of Jesus. Even though the Pope uses Scripture to try and prove his point, it is badly twisted and taken out of context! This would make sense for a Jesuit Pope! 
Even further and surprisingly, it contradicts traditional Catholic teaching which says: "Outside the Catholic Church" there is no salvation (CCC 846).
