**** Once he does so (joins the Catholic church), he has no further use for his reason. He enters the Church, an edifice illumined by the superior light of revelation and faith. He can leave reason like a lantern at the door. (John H. Stapleton, Explanation of Catholic Morals, Chapter XIX, XXIII. the consistent believer (1904); Nihil Obstat. Remy Lafort, Censor Librorum. Imprimatur, John M. Farley, Archbishop of New York )***** Does that answer your question?

I dont need any Catholic source or official position to understand that for a person to hold a book or writing to be infallible that has obvious errors simply because some fallible man says he should its evidence that that person has indeed given over his deductive reasoning to someone else.

"Does that answer your question?" No, it actually raises more questions, like why you would continue to post a LIE after is has been thoroughly refuted in this very thread. That passage is NOT contained within the book quoted. I actually posted the entire chapter of that book in post #3397 and it simply is not there.
The falsified version that you reposted does appear, however on many anti-Catholic websites and in posts on Free Republic by anti-Catholics apparently not interested in the truth.
