I mean as a fully mature adult not if you were once a Catholic kid who was daydreaming while something was going on.

I was a fully mature adult when I left the RCC. And don't assume anyone was daydreaming because you do about the RCC being legitimate. No church is legitimate who does not believe God's Word is the Final Authority. And all their 'practices and traditions' void God's Word. They make it very clear they are not God's church - even a Holy Spirit filled seven year old knows that. It's not by age we know but by The Holy Spirit within.

So you did not figure it out as a seven old or adult in the Church either especially when you declare Christ came in the Flesh. Nicene Creed. Which we declare at every sunday mass.

The Biblical Confession 1 John 4 of Faith.

I believe in one God the Father almighty,

maker of heaven and earth of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only-begotten Son of God,

born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light,

true God from true God,

begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through Him all things were made.

For us and for our salvation

He came down from heaven.

(at the following words, up to and including “and became man”, all bow)

and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,< and became man.

For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate, He suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.

He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead.

His kingdom will have no end.

And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life who proceeds from the Father and the Son,

who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets;

And in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.

I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
