So, then, the only thing that remains is to determine if the Pope, when speaking ex-Cathedra, has ever contradicted scripture.

We're waiting ...

Hmm, I don't have my handy-dandy reference sheet, on exactly which teaching and saying were ex-cathedra, or otherwise infallible. Is it safe to assume all major teachings, ordinances, practices, etc., are from infallible teachings? Is the Catechism an infallible teaching?

"The Church affirms that for believers the sacraments of the New Covenant are necessary for salvation. ’Sacramental grace’ is the grace of the Holy Spirit, given by Christ and proper to each sacrament."

“One who desires to obtain reconciliation with God and with the Church, must confess to a priest all the unconfessed grave sins he remembers after having carefully examined his conscience.”
