Could you give us some examples of infallible teachings?

two come to mind at once...The Immaculate Conception" which states that Mary was concieved without original sin, and the "assumption" which states that Mary was bodily assumed into Heaven by the power of God. (didn't ascend on her own)

Both of those erroneous claims cannot be backed up by scripture, and are therefore false.

They were made up by your denomination.

You and others bonded to your belief system have been asked for the scriptural references for backup and have failed to prove the above mentioned fables.

Why don’t Catholics ever show where that is taught in scripture?

The Immaculate Conception" which states that Mary was concieved without original sin,

Your Church's teaching, nor Scripture's.

On the contrary, Scripture teaches taht ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

All is all, not most, not some, not everyone but one. All.

If Mary did not inherit her sin nature from her father, she was not human, therefore Christ did not share in our humanity.

the "assumption" which states that Mary was bodily assumed into Heaven by the power of God. (didn't ascend on her own)

There is no Scriptural support for hat either and just because Scripture doesn't come out and say something didn't happen does not give license to anyone to make stuff up and pass it off as truth when its not.
