Depends what you believe in, everyone sees their belief as infallible.

Honestly I have yet to find one,every single one has its blemishes the closest I have come is left leaning Anarchism but goods some people spout some crap that make them almost bad as they people they're complaining about.
For me the worst Ideologies are any form of religious extremism,Capitalism,all right wing ideologies,and anything remotely Ayn Rand.

I see what you did there,you win the thread.
I have found Ideologies that I agree with on a lot of points but none that be considered infallible mostly because humans are fallible and fallible beings cannot create infallible things.

Before he became a hermit, Zarathud was a young Priest, and took great delight in making fools of his opponents in front of his followers.

One day Zarathud took his students to a pleasant pasture and there he confronted The Sacred Chao while She was contentedly grazing.

"Tell me, you dumb beast." demanded the Priest in his commanding voice, "why don't you do something worthwhile. What is your Purpose in Life, anyway?"

Munching the tasty grass, The Sacred Chao replied "MU".*

Upon hearing this, absolutely nobody was enlightened. Primarily because nobody could understand Chinese.

Sh*t happens.

Any belief that denies that bad things happen isn't being honest or realistic about this world.

Why do you urgently "need to know"?
Did they just appoint you to rule the planet or something?

Obviously nothing created by man is 'infallable'.

Ideologies included.

So just forget 'infallible'. Just figure out for yourself which creed speaks to you.
