Poll: Can the Pope teach error(s) to the Church?
« on: November 25, 2024, 10:21:38 AM »
Another "pay-to-play" poll (no peaking at results until you vote, though I set it up so people could change their vote if they should choose to).

* In this poll "errors" means/= errors against faith or morals only. *

Some sources to consider, feel free to add your own and drop comments/arguments below.

You really like polls.  I like them, too, because it gives you a picture of what the audience looks like.  I also like that you add a little humor as one of your choices.  Just thought I would say it out loud because I have been thinking this over the past couple polls.

I am not interested in arguing ad nauseum with the same 2- 3 people here about these topics.

I am interested in the general consensus among the vocal members of this forum concerning their understanding - kind of a mini poll of the sensus fidelium on these topics. It is 1 factor among many to consider.


So you are trying to determine as to whether or not the forum members are actually Catholic? Is that why it is a poll of the sensus fidelium to your topics?

Polls speak for themselves. Each person speaks for themself when they vote/comment. You only speak for yourself, not the forum.

I will give you an answer, but 1st you have to answer my question.

Do you think Francis is a Catholic and your Holy Father, the Pope?

So you want to know my opinion, so you can determine whether I am Catholic or not? 

We are allowed, on this forum, to believe that Francis is the Pope. Are you aware of that?

conjecture... :confused:

suspicion... :confused:

evasion...

 I will give an answer to your 1st question, but you have to answer mine first;

Do you think Francis is a Catholic and your Holy Father, the Pope?

last chance...or I no more play with you.

still waiting...

I do think that Francis is the Pope. The laity are not required to make a judgment of the pope in that regard. As to his being Catholic or not, I leave that the future Popes to determine. Again, not my job to decide the Catholicity of the Pope. Not is it yours. We do not follow the errors/heresies of popes who teach them.
