I have theological opinions like everyone else, and I've never claimed that every act of the Magisterium is inerrant or infallible, and yet on the question of EENS I deny that BoD/BoB have every been definitively taught by the Magisterium.

What I'm saying is pretty straightforward, that the Holy Catholic Church cannot transform into a brand new religion, with a novel theological system rooted in subjectivism and Modernist thinking and cannot adopt for its public worship a Rite of Mass that is doubtfully valid and certainly harmful to souls.  In short, if the Church were capable of transforming into an entity from which Catholics feel bound in conscience to separate because it had become so corrupt in its doctrine and public worship, that's tantamount to a defection of the Church, which is undoubtedly a heretical proposition.

As for BoD, I've repeatedly said that in its Thomistic/Bellarmine form it's not harmful to the faith, but only in its distorted form that undermines the necessity of Catholic faith for salvation.

So you're idiotically straw-manning my position.

I disagree.

Lad, do you not think Fr. Chazal's "impounded Pope" position is condemned in the following?

Pope Pius IX, Vatican I, 1870, Sess. 4, chap. 3, ex cathedra: If anyone thus speaks, that the Roman Pontiff has only the office of inspection or direction, but not the full and supreme power of jurisdiction over the universal Church, not only in things which pertain to faith and morals, but also in those which pertain to the discipline and government of the Church spread over the whole world; or, that he possesses only the more important parts, but not the whole plenitude of this supreme power; or that this power of his is not ordinary and immediate, or over the churches altogether and individually, and over the pastors and the faithful altogether and individually: let him be anathema.
