If we are to accept the Roman Catholic Church’s official position on Scripture and doctrine, then how do we reconcile it when they change their minds?

Can you give an example of the Catholic Church changing her position on Scripture?

“Can you give an example of the Catholic Church changing her position on Scripture?”

Not with only a cursory reading of your church’s history. I can certainly find examples that question dogma like Papal Infallibility, though.

Honorius comes to mind.

Quite a lot of PRACTICE has changed. Such as the selling of indulgences.
