Eugene was wrong about shedding blood for Christ. It is formally defined as "baptism of Blood," and is the method by which the Holy Innocents, who were not baptised, were saved.

You really do need to learn some basic ecclesiology. And you need to learn what "in the Church" means so that you will understand Eugene's statement.

[Pope] Eugene was wrong about shedding blood for Christ.

It was an infallible declaration. How could it have been in error? In order to say that, you would have to deny the first Vatican council's declaration concerning infallibility, and deny it point blank. Clearly this door is slammed shut.

It is formally defined as "baptism of Blood," and is the method by which the Holy Innocents, who were not baptised, were saved.

It was never formally defined anywhere at all.

I know exactly what I'm talking about.
