For this post only, let's change the name of this blog to something other than the Wayward Catholic because for this post I want to keep all references to religion, God, Catholicism or the Bible. So pretend its something like the Wayward Atheist. Okay, then, let's talk about Gay Marriage and why it is wrong from a purely …

Evil and the Light
There are many people out there today, two days after the reelection of Barack Obama, who are wondering "What's next?' While this is true for many diverse groups, it is especially true for devout Catholics. We can argue over whether the "Five non-negotiables" are really negotiable, whether Mitt Romney being a Mormon hurt him with …
The Vine Dresser
It's the day after the election and a somewhat disappointing one at that. I have to question why is this? How could people be so ignorant as to re-elect the current president? But then I found the answer, or at least part of it. We live in country where the majority of people only care about themselves. …
The Future is Now
Two more days to make some much needed changes to this country. This is where you can either vote for more of the same, and we can continue on the path to destruction, or vote for real "Hope and Change" and get us back on track to being the country we were founded to be. …
Obama and the Planned Parenthood Lie
In Tuesday's debate our President claimed that millions of women relied on Planned Parenthood for mammograms. Of course there isn't one Planned parenthood clinic which is licensed to have a mammogram machine. As pointed out in this article on CatholicOnline the President has lied and they give two explanations as to why. Either we must accept that the …
Time For Some Hard Thinking
The other day on my Facebook page, The Wayward Catholic, I posted a chart comparing Barack Obama's views on issues as opposed to Catholicism's views. There are thirteen items on the list. Reading it, you have to wonder how any Catholic would vote for him. He accepts all the tenets of Communism and Socialism, even though his supporters do their best to …
Joe Biden: I’m Practicing
Joe Biden claims he is a "practicing Catholic" and that his religion "defines who I am". So does he keep practicing until he gets it right? I don't claim to be an expert on Catholicism or any religion for that matter, but let me give you what Biden said during the VP debate: “My religion …
Obama and Strong Delusions
On one of my Facebook pages this morning I had a post from a group which referenced a passage from 2 Thessalonians 11 - 13. I am not sure what message the poster wanted to convey, but I certainly think it is relevant to the situation in US politics today.The passage reads as follows: 11Therefore God …
What’s A Catholic To Do
The conventions are over, we have our candidates for President and now, "What's a Catholic to do?" If we are to call ourselves "good Catholics" how can we in good conscience choose a candidate?And it is even worse when it comes to the senate race in Massachusetts. As I wrote in this article on Examiner.com …
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 …
