Back in the days when I didn't practice my religion I was less than tolerant to others who did. Maybe that's too strong, let's say I put up with them but that was about it. Especially when they said things like "Jesus suffered for you." I would think things like "If he suffered for me …

Woe To Those Who Call Evil Good
Episcopalians will be meeting at their annual convention this week in Indianapolis, and one of the items on their agenda will be same-sex marriage. The question is whether or not they will adopt the blessing of these in their liturgy. When God called me back to the church, I gave a lot of thought to …
Sunday Reflection: Confessing Our Sins
For the last two weeks I have been thinking about going to confession. This is something I haven’t done for about forty years. Why now? Why not?As I have written before I truly believe that God talks to me, no I am not hearing voices, but He talks to me in different ways. He talks …
Why Happy Catholic Converts Make Me Sick
I listen to a lot of Catholic radio since I spend most of my day in a truck and I have noticed that something. Most of these programs are wither hosted by or have guests who are converts to the Catholic Church. And they are all happy, all the time. I have nothing against happy people, …
Why Don’t Progressives Like Them Signs

High Ho, High Ho, It’s Off To Work I Go
I haven't quite figured this out yet, but every time I have a faith related question, the answer seems to pop up unexpectedly. Every night when I go to bed, after I do my nightly prayer and reading, I think about faith issues. Some time these questions are pretty deep, "Does God really exist?", "Why does …
Excuse 2: Tell It To a Priest
“Forgive me father for I have sinned and it has been a long, long time since my last confession”. Remember these words? If you are Catholic you certainly must, they were drilled into us in order to prepare us for our First Communion. How many of us still go? This Wayward Catholic hasn’t been in …
Barack Obama and the Fine Print
Have you checked out the new Obama campaign ads yet? You know the ones which talk about how he supports abortion as pointed out Liveactionnews.org.Of course in true Secular Progressive fashion, the ads don't come right out and say that Obama is in favor of killing babies, they only say he is for a woman's …
