That’s evidently what the RCC does in making its decisions.

It's been stated as such. We've been told that's exactly how the RCC runs itself.

"That’s evidently what the RCC does in making its decisions."

That was a reference to a democratically arrived at truth in the absence of a teaching authority. It must be pointed out that when Jesus asked the disciples; Who do the people say that the Son of Man is?" (Matthew 16:3) and the right answer was not arrived at democratically or by the average man. It was only answered when St. Peter stepped forward, without consulting the other Apostles and expressed what only God could have told him.

Peace be with you
