RCs are no strangers to different opinions. The infallible magisterium is held to have infallibly defined the actual meaning of only a few verses, and how many times it has spoken (out of potentially hundreds of times) is a matter of interpretation, and theologian interpret those that are, and her doctrinal parameters leave RCs great liberty to interpret Scripture to support her church, even if sources such as the CCC do not, and in which their is disagreement.

"RCs are no strangers to different opinions."

Do you realize how insulting the term "RC" is to a Catholic?

The term came into common use in the subjugation of English, Scottish, and Irish Catholics precisely because it was homophone of "arse". That continues to be the reason it is still used by many anti-Catholic Freepers, but I ask you not to use it because I really believe you are better than that.
