text: That was meant to be a paraphrase of your post. The thought of digging out quotes seemed moremtedious than I wanted to do. Take “...Benedict XVI came under criticism over Assisi and for their failure to turn back the tide of Modernism” for what i described as picking and choosing added to  “have long falsely accused orthodox Catholics of also being in the cafeteria.”
  
  The recourse to infallibility as the only things you must hold or believe is the first step on the road to the Cafeteria. Infallibility pertains to what we need to believe, there are other levels which demand assent, such as things we must hold, though not neccesarily believe, and things we accept with a religious submission. I doubt that JP2 would have limited the cafeteria to just matters of faith, and I am sure Benedict would not have.
  
  If you simply did not know about he different types of assent, then it makes sense that your comment sounds so confused, and you were not aware of it. My apologies.
