Yes, what the majority of the Magisteriums says, goes. It does not have to be unanimous.
Well, isn't that interesting?
When there are differences of opinion on something by non-Catholics, Catholics consider that proof of the inherent weakness of each man interpreting Scripture for himself.
And yet here we have the magisterium, which Catholics and Catholicism claim is led by the Holy Spirit, not being unanimous, or even NEEDING to be unanimous.
If they're not unanimous, that means that some of them are not being led by the Holy Spirit. So how do you know which ones are and aren't? How do you know that if some of them are not listening to the Holy Spirit, that it's only the minority in the vote?
What if the majority are not being led by the Holy Spirit? That would mean they passed something and passed it off as being from the Holy Spirit under false pretenses.
One would think that if God is protecting the Catholic church and they are pronouncing the pronouncements of God, they WOULD be unanimous. After all, it would be the same Holy Spirit leading them, would it not?
The fact that their votes are not unanimous is proof positive that they are not being led by the Holy Spirit.
What a double standard to allow something for Catholicism and condemn it for non-Catholics.
More staggering hypocrisy.
Ping for later
ROFL! You mean the Holy Spirit talks to some of them but theres a different spirit talking to the others and the ones with the most votes must be the Holy Spirit ones? Oy! But those Protestants that have those different interpretations .Thats different. Right?
