Exactly. The magisterium isn't infallible in all matters, but the laity must pretend that it is infallible. So the laity must agree to accept false teaching without question.
Weird that I can't find this attitude anywhere in the scriptures. In fact, we find the exact opposite.
Second of Revelations points to the Nicolaitanes ...
Precisely! Any teaching is to be cross checked with scripture just as Paul commended the Bereans for doing. The concept of a superior hierarchy is nicolaitan and God hates that.
Nicolaitan - from Nikos, Laos and Ton.
Nikos - "those who are dominate over the defeated".
Laos - the people or the laity.
Ton or Tan making it plural.
Nico-Laos-Tan - those who dominate over the defeated people.
The "magisterium" lords over the people but scripture clearly says they are not to.
1 Peter 5:1 "The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be revealed: Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; NOR AS BEING LORDS OVER THOSE ENTRUSTED TO YOU, but being examples to the flock"
