“The Pope can only be “infallible” when speaking about FAITH and MORALS”

“Pope Innocent III (1198-1216 AD) forbade people from reading the Bible in their own language. Pope Gregory IX (1227-1241 AD) forbade members from possessing a Bible. Pope Paul IV (1555-9 AD) forbade the possession of translations without permission of the Inquisition. Pope Clement XI (1700-21 AD) condemned the reading of the Bible by the laity.” from http://www.netbiblestudy.net/catholic/

I suppose the word of God has nothing to do with faith and morals.

Why not discover why those events occurred.
