I can play Burgmuller's "La Chevaleresque" perfectly, without any mistakes!
But that doesn't make me an infallible pianist, because I will fail miserably if I try to play Weber's "Perpetuum mobile"

Think about the sentence. As a question, it's much like "Are you not entertained?"

That's the way I was reading it when I voted "NO", for the record.
(I have to admit that the double negative threw me for a second, too!)

No, but it makes you an infallible performer of that piece.

In a similar way, those who wrote the Bible were infallible in that limited part of their lives. By the Grace of God. I doubt they went on to write infallible poems or mysteries.

The point is that anyone who believes the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, but also claims to believe a man cannot infallibly teach the Word of God is an imbecile.

That's OK if you think that just knowing the text without understanding is knowing the word of God.

I didn't mention knowing or understanding. That's yet another thing infallibility doesn't cover. Teh Poap does not necessarily understand what he writes. His arguments are not infallible. Only the conclusion is protected by God so as to be free from error. In the case of the Bible books, we have no idea if the writers understood what they transcribed, or if they correctly interpreted what they wrote and properly believed it. They might have written all that and held some heretical notion of the Faith.

The correct answer is popery.

Teh Bible can be considered to have a parallel to the Eucharist in that it has the 'accidents' of a book of txts. It becomes the word of God when it is understood by someone. But understood correctly by the power of the Spirit! If a person with evil motivation misinterprets the text to suit their own motive then it is not the word of God. All men are sinners therefore they cannot interpret every text infallibly, we are all subject to the delusions of the devil. However if you are saying that if a person teaches others the texts which are the containers of Gods word then they are not erring and if the purpose of their teaching is for God is their motive, then they are teaching infallibly and I would agree with you.
