but they are also saying that if the Pope were to issue one of his 'infallible documents' on the political situation in the Middle East, there would be no 'mistakes'.
This was probably only intended as an example, but according to wils link, the infallibility only extends to Catholic doctrine, in the case that there would be a dispute on a particular subject, like the nature of the 'soul' or something like that. The pope would have 'the final say' on the matter. I feel that if the church is going to have a position on a matter someone has to decide what it is.
Thomas, please feel free to point out how close I am to the mark, I'm only going of that link.
