I do not understand how anyone can call the Catholic church conservative. I know many priests are so liberal they parrot the Democrat party line. They're not opposed to abortions. They believe in the redistribution of wealth. They have bought into the phony "peace" movement. You can't get any more liberal than many of the priests.
Being a very conservative LCMS (formerly ELCA), I will never attend a church where I do not hear the firm Word of God. Nor will I attend a church where the pastor thinks he's a Democrat for it indicates to me the pastor does not get the connection between his politics and his believes.
But Catholic being conservative? No. Not with any consistency.

I am in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Our parish doesn't even have female Eucharistic ministers or Altar girls. Despite howls from some of the democrat dummies/Main Line matrons and touchy-feely "God should make you feel good about yourself!" dorks, our parish has remained conservative.
We even get fire and brimstone on Sunday, via Monsignor's homilies!
Too many churches have decided ti disregard the parts of the Bible that make then squirm uncomfortably.
