Yes, let’s be blunt.

YOU ARE A LIAR.

There is nothing that I have stated that has not been expressed by many of the Catholics on this site and in the written documentation of the Church. You will not get the majority of the Catholics to admit in the infallibility of the scriptures simply because it means everything else is fallible-that is every Church doctrine, every creed, every declared statement could be in error in light of the scriptures. In other words, you have to compare everything against the scriptures-sola scriptura.

Catholics are attempting to move towards a more eastern Orthodox position-one that believes scriptural teachings can evolve. However, this was never the view of the western church for over 1500 years. Even Trent declared the infallibility of the scripture. Catholics are saddled with centuries of writings that they simply wish they could make disappear.

If you don’t believe me, then please explain to me the difference between infallible and fallible writings. You will be hard press to do so. That’s because Catholics have change the meaning, watering it down so that it means nothing.
