The “Ex Cathedra” issue is a particular sticking point. My understanding is that this seldom happens, maybe once in a lifetime (I have had several Catholics point this out to me.)

It points to the Sacred/Secular dichotomy heresy that is part and parcel of Roman Catholicism. That a pope may be as evil as Satan, but may, in another altered state, declare infallible Church doctrine, is the epitome of error.

"Altered state"? Where in the Catechism did you find THAT?

As for the idea of infallibility being "error"--that's raw opinion, and one would need to PROVE it in order for anyone to take it as anything other than raw opinion.
