I believe that is still the official Catholic position.

Pascal's wager applied.

Some quote from some "official source" went like "better that we all die an agonizing death than that one soul is lost to damnation".

Kinda-sorta. On the one hand, yes, on other hand nowadays Vatican likes to talk about ecumenism and how everyone (notably including non-Christians) should live in peace and harmony.

As usual, what it means is "better that you die an agonizing death than that one soul is lost to damnation"
