They perform with a Harlem gospel choir on a version of I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For that becomes a bit of casual exaltation ex rock cathedra. They cook up a new song for the great bluesman B.B. King, When Love Comes to Town, and kick out the jams together. They corral Dylan into playing Hammond organ on an extraordinary new tune, Hawkmoon 269, and press him into harmony-singing and lyric-writing service on Love Rescue Me, a high point not only for the band but also for their informal spiritual adviser. The Edge...
...First Vatican Council of 1869-70 may have set back by several centuries the chances of restoring unity under Rome by proclaiming the Pope's personal infallibility-when he declares ex cathedra (from the throne) on a matter of faith and morals. It also insisted on the Pope's direct jurisdiction over each and every believer on earth. This was, perhaps, an improvement on the papal bull of 1302 that declared, "It is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff." The 1870 decree caused dissension even within the ranks of Catholic...
...long wait and the wonder of it all swelled for the team and its fans in the final moments of the Oakland game. The vanguard of 74,982 fans (they booed the 62 no-shows ex cathedra) swarmed onto the field, tore down supposedly indestructible steel goal posts and carted them away, but not before the long shank of one upright had been passed around by reverent hands, an instant relic of Denver's new religion.

...violent thunderstorm raged above St. Peter's Basilica in Rome on July 18, 1870, the bishops of the First Vatican Council adopted a decree that would alter Christian history. A Pope, they declared, is infallible when he defines doctrines of faith or morals ex cathedra (from his throne) and such dicta are "irreformable" and require no "consent of the church." The bishops' lopsided 533-to-2 vote that day masked a deep division in the council and throughout the church. The immediate repercussions included the schism of "Old Catholics" and a wave of antichurch laws in Germany. Though...
...dogma has been divinely revealed: that the Roman Pontiff, when he speaks ex cathedra-that is, when carrying out the duty of the pastor and teacher of all Christians in accord with his supreme apostolic authority he explains a doctrine of faith or morals to be held by the universal Church through the divine assistance promised him in blessed Peter -operates with that infallibility with which the divine Redeemer wished that His Church be instructed in defining doctrine on faith and morals; and so such definitions of the Roman Pontiff from himself, but not from the consensus of the Church...
