Some believe the Pope to be infallible.

I disagree in this case.

He is simply urging-not predicting or guarenteeing.

It's beginning to become apparent why he's the last Pope "the church" will ever have...

I had hope until recently.

I agree. Overall I am happy with this pope, but this is too wishy washy. Islam religion needs to be much more assertive in blasting the terrorism way of life before I agree with the pope on this subject.

FYI, the pope is only infallible in select cases. There have only been two infallible statements by popes in all of history.

Not true. The church holds that the Pope is infallible on matters of faith and morals only, and then only under certain formal conditions. Any Pope throwing his opinions around does not make church policy.

The Pope is believed to be "infallible" only in certain specific situations...not *always*.I don't think this qualifies as one of those situations.
