"Wrong" as in matters of faith and morals versus "wrong" as in individual sinfulness and imprudent decisions on non-doctrinal issues.

Aww yes, that infallibility is a tricky thing. :)

Not really. Some folks tend to confuse "infallibility" (In general, exemption or immunity from liability to error or failure; in particular in theological usage, the supernatural prerogative by which the Church of Christ is, by a special Divine assistance, preserved from liability to error in her definitive dogmatic teaching regarding matters of faith and morals) with "impeccability" (not capable of sinning or liable to sin: free from fault or blame )

That's when it gets tricky ;-)
