The real question is, what is the Protestant definition infallibility they claim the Pope does not have.

No, the question is the one I asked.

It obviously does not fit with the understanding of the word in common use throughout history. Apparently the is a peculiar special decoder ring definition of the word that Protestantism says applies to each Protestant individual but somehow not to any individual Pope or other Catholic.

Catholic doctrine on Papal infallibility is clear, long established, profusely documented, and the subject of numerous books by Catholic theologians and others, both pro and con.

I'll ask the question in a different way. Is your interpretation of that Roman Catholic doctrine infallible?

Cordially,

[Rashputin]

Your question assumes that I accept a Protestant definition of the word infallible, a definition not in evidence, and a definition that obviously is used to mean one thing when in the context of all individual Protestant interpretations of Scripture but something different when applied to a Catholic individual.

Therefore, the question is exactly as I stated it, what is the Protestant definition of infallibility that makes it possible to claim infallible individual interpretation of Scripture while at the same ruling out infallible individual interpretation of Scripture ?

Get back to me when you've polled the tens of thousands of different Protest ant groups and they've all agreed to a proper definition.
