“This is getting way too serious in a hurry. We all know no man is infallible.”
Really? Always, everywhere and in every situation? Is today Tuesday or Sunday? If you say, “Tuesday” isn’t that an infallibly true statement?
“If you don’t believe that go ask you mother in law.”
No, I’m asking you: Is it Tuesday or Sunday?
Why ask me when you can look at a calendar? How do you check the Pope to make sure he read the calendar aright?
Acts 17:11 “These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.”
“Is today Tuesday or Sunday? If you say, Tuesday isnt that an infallibly true statement?”
Statements can’t be infallible, they can only be true of false. The term infallible means incapable of failure, which means you can’t be “infallible sometimes”, or you are not infallible at all.
The only exception is when the Catholics use the term, as they seemed to have created their own definition to fit this concept of “papal infallibility”.
