As a Catholic, I can explain that the church believes the Pope infallible only in the area of the sacraments, confession, communion and the like. They are religious only. Anything else he is speaking for himself. Like most catholic if he wants to talk about confession or communion he has my ear. If he wants to talk about politics etc. he is on his own. Some listen like they do to anyone they agree with, others ignore ... pretty much the same with condom use and the like ... my friend ... Pretty much most churches are off the mark when it comes to God. Me I don't believe I have to go to any church to praise God. It is with me and in my heart not in any leader or building. That is how I see it anyway.
