HSH comment: When a sitting President wants to put pressure on private groups for political points, you know that we have a budding dictator on our hands. Putting militant homosexualists in charge of young boys is criminal on so very many levels. Why isn’t Obama impeached?
Accompany me, Father George David Byers, S.S.L., S.T.D., as I begin life as a Catholic Priest-Hermit by choice. Holy Souls Hermitage is dedicated to the sanctification of my fellow priests, bishops, deacons & seminarians going through the purgatory of this life or the next. Prayer and sacrifice go up, of course, for both Benedict XVI and the next Successor of Saint Peter. 
Why hasn’t Obama been impeached? I can hardly get my mind around that question. I was terribly upset when he was elected in 2008, I had prayed so hard that he wouldn’t. I was so disappointed, even angry. The election of Scott Brown, pro-abort, from Massachusetts was supposed to save us from Obamacare, right? – I made a lot of slobbering he’s so cute, so manly, pro-life people angry when I told them, pro-abort, no thanks. I was elated in 2010 when the Republican Party took over the House of Representatives, yay! Now we had a party with a contract with the people, they could stop Obamacare and the rest of the shenanigans because they controlled the purse-won’t put gas in that tank, right?
Father Byers, I apologize sincerely for the rant. I have not felt so much a stranger in a strange land as I do today. During the Offertory prayers at Mass, we pray for our government leaders to act with wisdom and compassion towards the poor, the immigrant and the vulnerable. I think our government leaders believe they are doing this in accordance to their own deformed consciences and misguided sense of mercy. I even believe many in our parishes would defend Obama and his administration as doing “right”.
The people in the pews, the people in our country and throughout the world and the people in government are in dire need of what can only be given, in charity and truth, by Christ through His Holy Church – conversion and salvation. I guess what I’m trying to say, is if we understand the reality of our blessings and responsibility, then we need to pray for our leadership, family members and for each other, not to simply do something, but to be something – truly converted to Christ and His Holy Church.
Well said, Cathy L. An erroneous conscience doesn’t save. Only Christ saves.
