"If so, did the writers of the Gospels write infallibly because of their own personal infallibility, or did they write infallibly because of the infallibility provided them by God?"

"Neither. They are infallible because the words written were given to the writers by the Holy Spirit. It’s not any mans infallibility. It’s only the RCC that perpetuates that myth. Christ was the only infallible man."

No, you read it wrong - please read it again. I said "Did they write infallibly because of the infallibility provided them by God. (That, of course is in reference to their writing, i.e., their physical writing. Either that fallible human wrote infallible writings by the guidance of the Holy Spirit, or he didn't.)

You do admit that fallible John physically wrote the "Gospel of John", for example, don't you, and that God used a fallible instrument to write an infallible document?

That is exactly the teaching if the Catholic Church. In very limited circumstances involving the Church's teachings on faith and morals, the Holy Spirit uses a fallible human to have him speak/write infallible documents.

I think you're starting to get it, even though you don't fully realize it yet.

Oh nice try! Let’s look at the promise Jesus gave the apostles.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, who is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Notice that word remembrance? That word followed by “whatsoever I have said to unto you” can not apply to anyone in the RCC. The RCC has duped people into believing that somehow they “acquired” that same “remembrance”. It’s ridiculous to follow that evil organization.

>>I think you're starting to get it, even though you don't fully realize it yet.<<

Oh I get it all right and I do fully realize that the RCC is a pagan cult. They admit themselves that they have incorporated pagan practices.

One would be very wise to head the admonition in Revelation to "come out of her".
