That's as clear as mud. Who gets to interpret that?
"Human will remains free under the influence of efficiacious grace, which is not irresistible" (De fide)
Again that is clear as mud. If efficacious grace is not irresistible, then why is it efficacious? The only way it becomes efficacious is if you don't resist it. Hence efficacious grace is, by definition, that grace which a man cannot resist.
"Souls who depart this life in the state of original sin are excluded from the Beatific Vision of God" (De fide)
What is that supposed to mean? Beatific Vision of God? Is heaven a mirage?
So the church has the exclusive ability to interpret scripture, but who has the authority to interpret the interpretations of the Church? You?
You just posted that so you could get the #666. :O)

So the church has the exclusive ability to interpret scripture, but who has the authority to interpret the interpretations of the Church? You?
Of course you can interpret Scripture for yourself. However, we, as the Church, are to do it through the lenses of what we have been taught by the Church already. We don't reinvent the wheel or deny what has been taught as dogma before. If you question my interpretations of the Catechism, you are more than welcome. But please provide me with a counter point of view with appropriate citations from a Council or Papal declaration, rather than your broad accusation.
