Only God is infallible and only He has infallible certainty. We have human, reasonable certainty.<br /><br />The game they play in RC apologetics seeks to trip up and confuse sensitive souls for the need for an infallible knowledge that they have the canon and the right interpretation. They go insane like the Bill Murray character Bob, until they shoot their brains out and depend on the Pope.
