Catholic AnswerA man is absolutely required to always follow his conscience (see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraphs 1776-1802). Any time a person is acting against their conscience they are sinning: "A human being must always obey the certain judgment of his conscience. If he were deliberately to act against it, he would condemn himself" (CCC 1790). However, a conscience MUST be informed and rightly aligned with revelation, it is our duty before God, to correctly form our conscience in light of His revelation. Again, any time we fail in that duty, we are committing sin. (see Catechism paragraphs 1783-1785). So, you always sin if you go against your conscience, and you sin if you are not correctly forming your conscience in the light of revelation given to men through His Church.

Can you be Catholic and follow what you believe God is telling you and not what the local priest says?
Of course. If your feel you are being wronged go to another priest.Roman Catholic AnswerThe precept in moral theology is a negative thing: any time you are going against your conscience you are sinning even if your conscience is wrong. This does NOT mean that you are doing the right thing by following your own conscience - that is only true if you conscience is formed in the mind of the Church. If, however, you believe that the priest is telling you something contrary to Church teaching, then, yes, you should go to another priest, or the Bishop. So, if the priest is telling you something the you believe is contrary to Church teaching, you still can't assume that God is telling you something contrary to the priest - you always have to submit your conscience to Church teaching. If you believe God is telling you something contrary to Church teaching, then, no, you are no longer Catholic. God never contradicts Himself, and the Church is His Mystical Body. Individual priests are not infallible, however, but you may disagree with a priest, you may not disagree with the Church.
