humans

“Never, never pin your whole faith on any human being.” Is Lewis telling us never to trust
anybody?

He is not saying to have trust in others but all people are human and can make mistakes. The only one we can truly trust is God. He is perfect and will not make mistakes or lead us astray.

Nope. Just as you said, humans are human and if you put all your faith in someone they can let you down; not because they are bad or untrustworthy but because we all make mistakes.
But if you put your faith in God you will never be let down.

People are imperfect. This reminds me of people who let themselves become offended by someone, and end up leaving the church or becoming inactive for awhile. That's so sad that they let the mistakes of an imperfect person affect them so much. The Savior is perfect. The gospel is perfect. People are not. Which means people can fail and let you down.
