What the Church teaches, and what some bishops may approve for publication, are different things

What the Church allows to be preached as a pious belief, and what constitutes the faith of the Church, are different things

Ah, yes, the Catholic doctrine "shell game". Point out an inconvenient document or statement from Church history, and it is dismissed as "fraudulent", "not infallible", "it's allowed to be believed, but it isn't actually taught", to name a few. The Catholic Encyclopedia bears the Impromptur of a Cardinal, but I guess that's not good enough. Tell me, is there an authoritative list of Catholic teachings that are considered infallible and must be believed? Were Trent, V1, and V2 infallible? Trying to nail down Catholic doctrine is like grasping for a mirage. Now you see it, now you don't. Very convenient for debate purposes.
