Friend, I was Catholic. I have no misconception.
Catholocism teaches that it is by Christ and works that one is saved. I know that much.
We accept forgiveness through faith. We receieve blessings by works. Works are beautiful, they are the best things we can do. They are merely not good enough to go to heaven. Our works CANNOT have an impact. It's not possible. "If we are saved also by works of the law, then Christ died in vain". That, my friend, is a choice.
I suppose it's a done deal. I do not believe that you are going to hell. But I am sorrowed by your sudden acceptance of fallible beleifs. Mary's rapture, spiritual perfection, and reception of prayer and praise is blasphemy. When the Council of Trent declared "tradition" equal to the Word of God, God had had enough. They were too blind to see the light. So, God had to move. Indulgences, excommunication, and the Inquisition are products of the chruch God left.
As I said, it is your desicion. If faceless names on the internet are trustworthy enough to place your confidence of God in, then, this is another choice that you will make.
