Of course they are fallible. They are not God. Everyone falls short of the glory of God and in need of redemption, including the Pope.

Popes and the Roman catholics are fallible.Even Peter whom they claimed as the first pope is a big lie.How can you expect a liar to be infallible.Peter is designated as the spiritual leader of Israel,and Paul is designated as the leader of the Gentiles where Rome is included,besides Peter didn't go to Rome it is Paul who is always in Rome.

I'm trying to explain that Peter is used by the Vatican to give weight and credibility to their invention of the pafacy.I'm very sure that if he is alive today he will not accept that title as a pope because that is against the teachings of god.You see it is the emperor of Rome that created the Vatican to accept christianity.The christians of the apostles flock and the christians of the vatican are different.One is original and the other is imitation just to make comparison.

If indeed the Christian of the Vatican as you call it is an imitation of the original Christians therefore all succeeding denominations are all imitations so we are in the same boat aren't we? Because where did you got your bible in the first place; from Christians of the Vatican who preserve it. God bless.

"Christians of the Vatican" (whatever that means...) don't preserve the scriptures.

Is he human?
Yes - then he is fallible. In all matters INCLUDING those of the church!
That whole idea was started to keep people from questioning the church. Why anyone still believes it; is beyond me.

Of course! They are fallible. History shows it. Even the first pope denied he knew Jesus. Everyone is fallible except God. Jesus Christ is fallible. There was a time when Jesus lost his temper at a synagogue and destroyed everything he saw.

I agree to you that they are fallible. But I don't agree that Jesus is fallible. Jesus did not lost His temper at the "synagogue", well it is not synagogue actually, it is in the temple, He's angry because the people use the holy temple to be a "den of robbers" and that is not sin. Losing temper is not sin I think. Losing control of yourself and hurting anybody is a sin maybe.
