what? is this for real?
joseph was an honourable man according to the gospel accounts. but mary died a virgin? hahaha jesus had half-brothers and sisters all from mary and joseph. not unless the whole family came about from immaculate conception lol. the infalliablity of popes is another area that dumbfounds me in relation to catholicism.
were evil men like the famous leo infalliable? were the popes who promised the removal of taxes of those who survived (and removal of purgatory for those who died) the crusades infalliable? were the popes who oversaw the famous inquisitions infalliable? it is crazy and in fact heretical to place such faith in mere men, and in some cases very evil men. protesants are also guilty of this (eg calvinists who follow his teachings blindly though he did some very wicked things) but its silly to believe mere men can be infalliable. when a man becomes a pope does he suddenly become this new man who cannot make doctrinal error? yet he could before?
