But that's not what the Catholic Church teaches. The Pope, as an individual, is fallible, but the Church as a whole is not. Just wanted to clear that up.
Ah, sorry. So the Church's platform of noninvolvement during the Holocaust can be construed as not being a mistake? The Inquisition was loads of fun as well.

My point, tongue in cheek though it was, is that the Church has been wrong before, so who's to say the Fundementalists who are trying to say that fantasy stories are wrong... aren't wrong also?

Not that I'm saying it's the Catholic Church that is behind book banning as we speak of it, but that churches in general have been wrong in the past and people should not forget it.
