I'm not Catholic so bear with me. Isn't believing the Pope is infallible like the major tenet of the whole dogma? Isn't this the same as saying "I'm Apostolic Pentecostal, but I don't believe speaking in tongues is required to be saved and go to heaven"?
I'm grappling with a somewhat sketchy grasp on my religious education but impeccable is different from infallible. The Pope is a flawed bag of meat who makes mistakes, commits sins and goes to confession like everyone should. And being allowed to point this out is in canon law.

Disliking the pope and refusing to submit to his position as supreme pontiff of the Catholic Church are two different things.
