If you would kindly give me the FReepername of one Catholic on FR who has ever said "the Catholic hierarchy never makes mistakes," or "the Pope never makes mistakes" or even "the Church never makes mistakes," I will go after that person hammer and tongs.

I really will.

Name and link or quote.

Thank you.

Well, I was responding on this very thread to terycarl, who has stated:

“That having been said, the church itself, not individual members, is protected from error bu the Holy Spirrit.....the pope, bishops, priests, altar boys, nuns....etc. can err and be sinful.....the Church can’t!!.” in Post #81

So, there is the “Church never makes mistakes”, as it sounds to me.

Also, there is this, in Post #114:

“...in the 2013 year history of the Catholic Church, it has never taught anything in opposition to the teachings of Christ.....NEVER.”

Although he’s since walked that back to say he just meant the couple of teaching that have been pronounced ex cathedra, and not really everything the church has taught, even though that is not what he wrote.

the Catholic hierarchy mskes zillions of mistakes the pope can certainly make a mistake (he's human) we Catholics have certainly made our share of Mistakes....maybe more than our share...but when the Pope speaks "ex Cathedra"...from the Chair of Peter, he cannot err.....EVER.
