1. Artificial (man-made) birth control is evil.
2. Black people have no souls.
3. Spectral evidence is enough evidence to convict witches to burn - at the stake.
4. Nazis should be "saved" and given new havens via "the rat line"... you know, cause they hated Jews...
5. Boys are boys... the Muslims recognize this... why are we the only religion paying out millions for our indiscretions?
6. The world is flat. Come on, man - when was the last time your BMW drove off the edge?
7. The world is the center of the universe - and stop with those telescopes already. Galileo did some time - enough time to discourage others... I mean, that was the plan... seriously, that was the plan... so attend church. Learn.
8. Prada is the king. Mmmm, Prada.

Papal Infallibility has been invoked so few times in 2000 years that you could count on your fingers the number of times:
It does not mean that the Pope is perfect or that he is never wrong. It means that when he speaks Ex Cathedra, in union with the whole of the Roman Catholic Conclave of Cardinals and Bishops, after careful and prayerful review, what he says is held as true... and that if somehow it ISN'T ... God will take care of the details later.
This ability to set in stone various dogmas and canons is vital for the unity Yshua bar-Ysef implored his followers to maintain. Witness the fact that Catholicism was it for fifteen hundred years... then in less than 450 years, we have over 30,000 registered protestant denominations in the USA alone.

According to traditional Catholicism, the Pope is never wrong. However, science and the church sometime disagree, and the church has admitted, for example, that it was wrong to execute Gailelo because he said that the earth revolves around the sun.
Some of your examples, as I'm sure you're aware, are issues that a lot of people see as problems in modern theology. Other issues you have listed you can't expect to get a serious response on. Prada? Oh please.

The word "infallible" does not mean that the poop is not an idiot or even that he is correct. It means that he is immediately forgiven for any sins of the mouth that he makes.

The entire religion surrounding the papacy is false, so I guess the papacy is nothing but fallible.

The Pope is definitely fallible and judging from your list, so is your source.
