Pay attention to what you are reading. I never said a pope could define a novelty. What I said is when he defines a doctrine he teaches infallibly; and when he defines a doctrine he acts as the rule of faith, because the doctine he defines becomes an object of divine faith. But I seriously doubt you will even undersand what that means.
Pay attention to what YOU are SAYING:
…the pope is the rule of faith. …
Even a true Pope is NOT "the rule of Faith."
The Deposit of Faith is the rule of Faith.… period.
If a true Pope teaches what has always and everywhere been taught, he is merely teaching the Deposit of Faith, the "ordinary Magisterium."
If a true Pope makes an
ex cathedra refinement explaining what has always and everywhere been taught, he is merely expounding upon the Deposit of Faith. he is
not becoming "the rule of Faith."
There are no other alternatives. By definition, anything moral or dogmatic other than Ordinary Magisterium and Extraordinary Magisterium is a
novelty, hence
outside the Deposit of Faith.

Pastor Aeternus. (linked previously by me) Pay attention especially to the constraints upon even a true Pope.
Regarding Señor Jorge Bergoglio, he long ago unseated himself with his pertinacious тαℓмυdic doctrines (linked previously by me). He is therefore not a Pope, but an anti-Pope, to whom no Catholic owes obedience. Quite the contrary, practicing Catholics should pray for Jorge's speedy death in order to end his soul-killing anti-papacy.
