“If one is a faithful and believing Catholic, the Word of God and His Holiness are on the same page.”

And what if one does not believe that the pope is infallable?

then you are NOT Catholic - the infallibility of the Pope when speaking ex cathedra is dogma - not negotiable - a deal breaker.

What specifically are you speaking about. The Pope has only proclaimed two infalliable dogmas, The Immaculate conception and the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into heaven.

There are other things, however, from the Magisterium. So again I ask for your specifics.

Excellent question. What do you think it means when Catholics say the Pope is infallible?

Then one is not a believing Catholic, obviously. However, it is far more likely that I will be crucified for not believing Obama is infalliable than you are for not believing the same regarding His Holiness.
