I've been told on these forums that the RC has the truth.They are the only church guided by the Holy Spirit. Since they are guided by the HS the truth can't change. It can grow, but never change. This is what separates them from all the Prot denominations.
Your quotes from the early Fathers seems to suggest that the long line of Popes didn't always agree with the teachings of the early church. Thanks for the info.

BTW I apologize for the grammar. 20 years of dictating to secretaries can make you rusty. I've often thought of going back for a refresher course, but it always interferes with my tee times. You seem to be very knowledgable. If you ever need a job look me up. With your grasp of the english language I'm sure I can find you something entry level in our secretarial pool. ;)

...Popes didn't always agree with the teachings of the early church...

Here is the thing.
Before the 1st Vatican Council declared Infallibility of the Pope, the opponents of the doctrine were searching for historical inconsistencies in official past Papal pronouncements. What they found, and presented, was not enough to oppose the decree.
If you would like to continue to argue your point from post #153, you would have to reference the allegations to concrete documents (I have never heard or read anywhere else of the abortion views you presented there).
Your crashed old hard drive isn't enough for evidence, sorry ;^)

And, of course, thank you for the job offer :-)
