*say a man in Rome in "infallible" in religious matters (recall JPII kissing the Koran)

A beautiful example of the Devil taking up red herrings and falsehoods to attack The Church. Let's break this down:

1. Doc Eek incorrectly states Papal Infallibility -- this is supposed to be ONLY on matters of doctrine and ONLY when voiced ex-Cathedra (i.e. from a specific point of prolaimation) -- the Pope does this only in extreme situations and only on deep reflection with God guiding him.
2. Doc Eck's statement somehow seems to insinuate that the Pope's tendency to kiss the soil and kiss a gift is the same as the Pope making a religious proclamation is such an astonishing bit of sheer intentional misdirection, it take's one's breath away.

It's been awhile since I've seen a RC defend JPII's loss of sanity and grace which he displayed when he willfully kissed the Koran, gift or not.

If someone "gifted" you with a Taliban rifle that had the blood of an American soldier on it, would you kiss it?
