“A Pope is only “infallable” in matters of dogma. He is dead now, in case you didn’t hear, and the current Pope said this...Wish you people could get the whole dogma thing straight.”

“Try publishing from the Vatican. Then we’ll have sound grounds.”

The great thing about circular arguments is that you can never be wrong. As long as we believe what the current pope claims we will never be lead astray. How convenient.

Hey Dr. E., don’t the Mormons play the same trick with their Prophets?

Dogma never changes. If a Pope says that something is ex cathedra it is forever. Whether he is dead or not. On anything else, a Pope is human. He can be right or wrong. Your statement is wrong.

A bit of education is a beautiful thing. Try it. I like Bing.
