In my last post, I talked about the "Lost Books of the Bible". I briefly mentioned that there were many theories regarding why these books were left out of the accepted Bible. Most of these theories seem to point out to a specific agenda of the early Christians to make the bible say what they …

Big Brown and the Boy Scouts
It's been a few posts since I've written about politics on this blog, so it's about time. I received a press release from the Family Research Council regarding their decision to not ship anything via UPS any longer. This is because of UPS's decision to no longer fund the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) because they discriminate. As stated …
The Subversion of Morality Continues
I often write about the Progressive movement and how they are constantly undermining Christian beliefs. They want to be in charge, they don't want God to be in charge, they don't want a young person's parents to be in charge, they want to control your thinking, your mores. Here is a "Guide" put out by …
What’s In It For Me
In my last two posts I bemoaned the results of the presidential elections. My take on the results is that we have become a "What's in it for me" culture and we vote accordingly, for whoever will give us more, for less. We have also become a "culture of death", where many of us no …
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 …
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 …
Responsibility
In my last post I talked about choices. We all make choices, but that is only have the battle, because each choice has a consequence, a result. When we make bad choices, we get bad results. When we make good choices, we get good results. But what really matters is how we handle the consequences, do we …
Killing Is Wrong
A couple of posts ago I was accused by a commentor of forcing my opinion on others because I believe that abortion should be illegal. The argument was if I supported such a law and the law passed then that would be forcing my opinion on others. Of course the commentor fails to see that the opposite must also be …
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 …
