agreed

While many people think of "infallibility only" people as almost-liberals, I actually thihnk infallible is a more powerful concept than inerrant. Infallible has deep apologetical implications.
I agree, when the term is understood correctly. The problem is when attempts are made to limit the application of infallibility, as noted above. The tip off nowadays is usually when someone affirms some form of infallibility but refuses to affirm inerrancy.
