“by the divine assistance promised to him in blessed Peter, that infallibility which the divine Redeemer willed”

Peter was a prime example of fallibility.

Christ’s sacrifice was needed precisely because _all_ men are fallible. Strange that _one_ denomination, on its own say-so, carves out infallibility for its own purposes.

Seems teachings on humility should be considered.

You're confusing impeccability (absence of sin) with infallibility (ability to teach without doctrinal error).

The human authors of Scripture were absolutely infallible in writing the words of Holy Writ.
