I wrote nothing about your life, I was stating that what you wrote was evidence that you had not been exposed to Catholic teaching. Since I do not believe you would tell a deliberate lie.
Catholicism has never, ever taught that one is to look to man for Salvation. That you contend you were so taught means either you never were Catholic or you were so poorly taught that you honestly were lead to believe such nonsense.
But show me in any Catholic document that man saves and not Christ alone.
