Are you sure that you were raised as a Roman Catholic? If so, it seems for someone like you, a "cradle Catholic", not to know about this aspect regarding the infallibility of the ordinary and supreme Magisterium of the Church.
Well, I'd say I technically was...my parents got me baptized, made me take CCD classes for a while and go through the processes for some of the sacraments. Though my parents don't follow or even seem to care about the teachings at all, to the point where I can barely remember anything about God coming up in our house. Which naturally crippled my knowledge for a while. Maybe "raised Catholic" isn't exactly the right phrase to use.
