The Bible has no teaching of perpetual virginity of Mary. Nor are there any writings from the first 100 years AD from the Apostles that teach this.

nor are there any writings against this...The Catholic church teaches it, the Catholic church is infallible, therefore I believe it.

Strange that Luther, Zwingli and Calvin believed in the perpetual virginity of Mary.

“nor are there any writings against this...The Catholic church teaches it, the Catholic church is infallible, therefore I believe it.”

I am not trying to get you to change your beliefs.

However, you made a truth claim. I pointed out it is a claim without support in the Bible or the first 100 years of the Church. Consequently, it is made up.

As to your new truth claim about the Catholic Church being infallible, I will only say that history contradicts your claim in a legion of ways. Can you provide validation for your claim? Evidence? Facts?

There is nothing more resistant to truth than a mind which has only one idea.
