Do Eastern Catholics embrace the doctrines of papal infallibility and papal supremacy? Is Vatican I binding on Eastern Catholics?

Yes, Eastern Catholics believe in papal infallibility and papal supremacy, like Roman Catholics. Vatican I’s teachings apply to them because they are in full communion with the Pope. However, they maintain their traditions and ways of worship while respecting the Pope's authority. You can read more about Eastern Catholic Churches [en.wikipedia.org].

I believe traditionally, Yes, Byzantines are in line with Papal Infallibility. Lately though, we should really revise that concept.

I feel like we should obviously respect and pray for the Pope's authority, but we should focus more on our Eastern and Orthodox spirituality.
RC Churches have many problems ours do not have. Not that we all agree on things, either.
Let us stick to our Holy Traditions and pray for the Masonic infiltration of Rome to be rooted out.

Glory to Jesus Christ!

I reckon that's why the Pope doesn't resign at age 75.

Most do but NONE should, since the ultramontane way pastor aeturnus is written is objectively heretical.
