Ah, but again you distort the truth. We accept the Magisterium--when it adheres to Tradition. If it contradicts the perennial teachings of the Catholic Church, however, we reject such novelty in favor of what has always been taught by previous popes and councils and doctors of the Church. That is known as keeping the faith. Magisterial teachings, after all, are not binding if they are novel.

You, on the other hand, would have no trouble believing in flying green elephants if the Vatican put out the word. It troubles you not at all that flying green elephants are not found anywhere in either Scripture or Catholic Tradition. You only worry about submitting to the Pope--without worrying about how much he departs from his predecessors. To you the Pope trumps everything--even the faith itself.

Thus, we follow St. Paul's admonition to the Galatians: if even an angel should come down from Heaven to preach a new gospel, let him be anathema. New doctrines have no divine protection--as Vatican I affirmed: "For the Holy Spirit was not given to the Successors of Peter that by His help they might disclose new revelation."
