Okay... so, you don't think Vatican II an Ecumenical Council... under your definition it can't be... because Ecumenical Council are error free...
I am correct with you thinking so far?
I am trying to find where we have common ground if that is okay.

BTW, congratulations to you and your bride on the birth of your baby.
You can spend some of the sleepless nights here, as you feed and rock your little one.
Aren't kids fun?

Who says ecumenical councils are error free? Some ecumenical councils make official declarations, some do not. Only definitive declarations are subject to divine protection--and Vatican II made none. But even those councils which make official declarations are guaranteed divine protection only for what is officially declared as binding. All the rest can theoretically be full of errors.
