This is the "Third Foundation" from Sylvester Mazzolini Prierias' Dialogue Concerning the Power of the Pope (1518) which was his response to Luther's Ninety-Five Theses.  Prierias' views on papal authority anticipate the First and Second Vatican Councils.

The Roman Catholic Church at the Councli of Trent?

[Luke Elliot]

Ah, another one from church history! Benedict of Nursia, the founder of Western Christian monasticism? (I could be way off on this one).

"Infallible"? Vatican 1, IRRC.

[Raymond]

Scott Hahn

[Gene Schlesinger]

I'm guessing the First Vatican Council.

"from which the Holy Scriptures, too, draw their stregnth and authority,"

Shocking statement.

[zanchius]

It was just before the election last year...

can't remember which one said it...

Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, or

perhaps last month... Sonia Sotomayor ?

[pb]

Not an official statement, methinks, that would use "anathema" instead of "heretic"?

[J.Moore]

Yeah, i thought it was "anathema" and was from C of Trent as well...

Perhaps Mel Gibson? ;-)

[Timothy Kilgore]

I think it was a response by sylvester ...to Luther's 95 Theses.

[Adam]

Robert Sungenis

[Coyle]

Hmm, shame on me for not knowing this one (after four years at The Catholic University of America). Were I Catholic I would assume that St. Peter must have said it...
Since I'm not, I'll guess either Vatican II or Benedict XVI.

[Bob]

An antichrist

[Marv]

I'm going with Trent.

[Mark Priestap]

Trent?

[Matt Heerema]

I'm gonna go with Bono.

;-)

[Mark]

The Holy Scriptures draw their strength and authority from the (a) pope?
Good thing the roman catholic church has God's back.

[Conor]

Satan?

[BIll]

I'm thinking that Augustine said something along these lines.
