Welcome to Old West Catholic Priest, a small watering hole in the desert of the Internet! Here the rule of "Never discuss politics or religion in polite company" doesn't exist. I want to talk about the Catholic faith and how it can influence the wider culture here in the United States in particular, but also issues throughout the world. I am especially concerned about issues of politics and how they play out in connection, and often against, Church teachings. Living as a disciple of Jesus Christ and seeking His salvation is very much open for discussion.

So, pull up a chair to the bar, grab your favorite drink to wet your whistle, and join in!
