When was "Papal infallibilty" introduced? I was under the impression that it was not introduced until much later (relatively speaking).
If you believe that your teachings are the same today, why do some RC's spend so much time on this thread saying that doctrine must be allowed to "develop" from what it once was? ("Greater understanding", is what they call it.)

#3469 Actually, Papal infallibility was pretty much practiced from the earliest times (I'll leave it to the scholars to elaborate with historical references) The actual Definition was in the 19th century ,a DEVELOPMENT of the practice up to then .
