4:3 he makes an ex cathedra proclamation.

I have never quite understood the “ex cathedra” system but I am one of those Wascally Evangelicals. Seems as best I can perceive it that even declaring a papal declaration to be ex cathedra depends on its ratification as such by future generations of churchmen. That way they do manage to throw out at least some of the worse theological trash.
