Talk:Papal Infallibility

message: I had to remove this because it was awkwardly placed at the front of the article and also removed the summary of the topic:
:The Catholic Church has never held as doctrine or taught that the person of the pope is inerrant or infallable. In particular, these terms are only used to connotate issues of moral faith or Church dogma as they are intended to be applied to the entire body of christianity
Unfortunately, I'm not sure what the person who added this means or I would put it somewhere else.  To the author: are you saying that the Roman Catholic Church says that the person of the Pope is not infallible but the office of the Pope is?  Or are you saying that the Pope isn't infallible period?  If it's the former, I guess a case could be made for that.  If it's the latter, then we have a problem. Pmadrid 23:38, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit regarding pope's "inerrancy" and "infallibility" 

message: Suggestion: Can someone add a link to a list of ex cathedra declarations?  If they're rare, such a list should be short.
Or maybe a link to an external site that lists them all.  I'm having trouble finding a definitive list.  Thanks.

: Unfortunately, there is no definitive list.  I have seen lists put together by different theologians.  The lists can be as short as two items or as long as a dozen.  No official statement by any church leader has ever listed them, although the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith did put out what was effectively a partial list in 1998 -- but even this is disputed, because it was released in the names of Cardinal Ratzinger and Cardinal Bertone, rather than as a formal CDF document.  So even this document may just be Ratzinger and Bertone stating their opinions as private theologians.
: Would a summary of these lists be worth Wikipedia-ing?  Recall that the list of things defined by papal infallibility is short compared to those defined or established by other forms of the Infallibility of the Church. Lawrence King 07:07, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of ''ex cathedra'' declarations 

message: Why is the article redirected from Papal infallibility? If the term is used as "papal infallibility" in the text, shouldn't it be lowercase in the article name as well? --Malyctenar 13:40, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed.  Who wants to volunteer to make this edit and change all the links?   I'll do it in two weeks if no one else does.... Lawrence King 07:10, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I also agree. Very inconsistent. Also, your two weeks are up. It's been six months. :) -Silence 21:35, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Capital I-nfallibility 

message: As far as I know, no churches other than the RC and the few that are very closely linked with it accept Papal infallibility. Isn't it therefore redundant to list the attitudes of other churches towards it? Won't they all say the same? DJ Clayworth 14:00, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
