Ridiculous. The Scripture is clear: All that God calls. You are trusting in the Catholic Church for your salvation. If it's the structure itself, the wood and bricks, you worship a golden calf. If it's the people who make up the body that you are trusting in, then you are all just worshiping yourselves.

Catholics don't worship each other. Only God. Who told you that?

All that God calls

I read that, thanks. Indeed, all that God calls are free to receive Baptism, as the passage explains.

You are trusting in the Catholic Church for your salvation

Yes, I do, and you should too. It is not, however, either the physical plant or the faithful, although these are components of it. The Church is a community of believers dead and alive, founded by Jesus Christ Who is Her bridegroom. The Church and Christ are in a spousal relationship whereby both trust and fulfill each other. Thus Christ protects the Church from error while the Church is free to legislate Divine Law on earth, which Christ respects in Heaven. The Church is bodily united in Christ as a spouse should, she forms the house of Christ on earth and it is possible to speak of the Church as the Mystical Body of Christ. The Church has been handed down through history from the Apostles and is sustained by its bishops, priests, monks and nuns. She gives us her holy Sacraments through which Divine Grace flows to men. Her true boundary is drawn by Christ. There is no salvation outside of it because there is no salvation outside of Christ.
