Talk:Pastor aeternus

Should "aeternus" be capitalized?
This is a picky point. Both words in Lumen Gentium are capitalized but they are both nouns. In Pastor aeternus, "aeternus" is an adjective. Does it matter? --Richard (talk) 20:32, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Dogmatic revelation of a Truth?
What does "the dogmatic revelation of a Truth about the Papal Magisterium" mean? A dogma is by definition the formal definition of a revealed Truth; it is not in and of itself a means of divine revelation. All truth required for salvation is contained in the Sacred Scriptures, i.e., revelation ended with the death of the last apostle. I assume what the author intended to write was "the dogmatic definition of a revealed Truth about the Papal Magisterium."

No reference to Honorius I?
Why does this web-site have no section dealing with Pope Honorius I or at least a link to the pope? The fact that Honorius I was condemned for teaching Monothelitism by the Sixth, the Seventh and the Eighth Ecumentical Councils does not constitute a very good historical supoort for the argument that prior to 1870 papal infalliability was a 'de fact' assumption of the Catholic Church. Pope Leo II also condemned his predecessor for 'permiting the purity of the teaching of Apostle tradition to be polluted.' So who got it right, Leo II and the Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Counciles or Pius IX and the First Vatican Council?
