I've heard a Catholic say that the Pope who rode prostitutes around like donkeys was infallible in his spiritual proclamations.
The Catholic Church tried to silence Galileo for saying the earth orbited the Sun. That made 0 sense too.
Sense doesn't enter into it.
And what spiritual proclamations were those? Considering there have only been 2 papal proclamations in the history of the Church, I doubt he was one who made one.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
