The Bishops in the Council of Basil say thus, 1Etsi Papa sit Caput Ministeriale Ecclesiae, non tamē est maior tota Ecclesia. Alioqui errante Pontifice, quod saepè contingit, & contingere potest, tota erraret Ecclesia: Although the Pope be the Ministerial head of the Church, yet is he not greater, then all the Church. Otherwise, when so ever the Pope erreth, which thing happeneth oftentimes, and may well happen, the whole Church should likewise err.
