"...what the majority of the Magisteriums says, goes. It does not have to be unanimous."
-- JCBreckenridge's post #1139

Do we have enough Catholics to form a quorum yet?

It’s easy to be unanimous when you have a magisterium of one.

Big deal, you found two Catholics are not in complete agreement on HOW the Magisterium functions, but agreeing on WHAT it does and its infallibility. Neither JCBreckenridge nor I have claimed to be infallible and we both look to the infallible pronouncements of the Magisterium on matters of consequence instead of our fallible powers on interpretation.

That said, I will put both JCBreckenridge and my posting accuracies up against any of the Sola crowd.

Not to mention that they also disagree on how many times the pope himself, claiming to have the prerogative of infallibility, or the magisterium in union with him, has spoken infallibly, defining “what has been taught always and everywhere,” let alone on aspects of it.

There are not only differences on what category some teachings fall under, and thus what level of dissent may be allowed (and disagreement on that aspect as well), if any and in what manner, but on how many levels there are, with a plethora of often prolix professors of Rome trying to explain it.
