The role of the pope is analogous to that of an old English king, who did not MAKE law, but simply pronounced what the law WAS and HAD BEEN since time immemorial. We live in a world in which legislatures produce new laws like sausages, but that is not how the ancients did or the Catholic Church does things.

The only infallible "source" for truth is the scriptures. Besides God Himself, Only His Words (the Scriptures alone), are infallible."

"Then the Word fails when the reader sees false doctrine in that words, such as that Jesus was not divine?"

Thw Word never fails. People who misuse the Word may fail.
