Of course one might note that the Catholic Church itself broke away from 
the Orthodox Church over a dispute that from what I recall was about the 
papal infallibility doctrine that became popular. While I'm decidedly 
agnostic, knowing that at least one of the major religions hasn't really 
wavered for nearly 2000 years does make one pause.
