I've also heard of the Assumption of Mary, but I didn't realize that was the belief she was taken body and soul into heaven. I guess the pope just decided this in the 1950s.

They also believed she never sinned, ever. Impossible. Only God is this infallible.

This is correct, and none of it has to do with the pope in 1950. For those of you following along that have the ability to think critically, please look into the Protoevangelion of James, the Suub Tum (one of the earliest recorded christian prayers outside of the canon of the New Testament), and the writings of Ignatius of Antioch, the shepherd of hermas, and the didache. These things all concretely date prior to Constatine and were widely used in the churches during the Roman persecution. Square them with your Sola Scriptura and Sola Fide positions. I would love to discuss them with anyone who is willing to have an honest dialogue.

Very well said! I just got caught up with the Whole Counsel of God by Father De Young - highly recommend it. It is verse by verse by Father De Young who speaks Greek, Hebrew and English. It was legitimately life changing and I do not mean that lightly. So I was giving Rock and Sand another listen. It goes into the history of the Protestant reformation, the schism of 1054 between the east and west, and the Orthodox view on all of it. Very informative and very matter of fact.
