Sounds prideful to me.

“but the Catholic Church is the organization that assembled the Canon and continues to infallibly interpret it down to this day,”

God Word is sufficient.

Its truthful.
Pride and vainglory are two vices that so far, by the Grace of God, I don’t suffer from. I have others that are crosses in themselves that I struggle with daily. If I didn’t avail myself of the Sacrament of Reconciliation once a month or so, I’d really be a mess.

Don’t you mean you (or your pastor’s) interpretation of God’s word? I for one am glad I belong to the Church that teaches with authority and I don’t have to worry about interpreting God’s word for myself.

I encourage you to familiarize yourself with Marcus Grodi of the Coming Home Network. His Catholic Conversion witness is about as powerful as they come, and, at its root, its about authority.
