Do you think she agrees with Obama’s stance on abortion?

Sounds like one of those dikey “Spirit of Vatican II” nuns still clinging to the prospect of women’s ordination. I wonder if she’ll wear a habit or Kmart clothes.

she's "an icon among Catholics who has really been an inspiration to women everywhere,"

Why sure, yeah, she's even more well-known than that old Indian woman.... Teresa, was it?

Maybe in her own mind. She's not an icon to this Catholic. Twit. Women everywhere? Even those left to die after a botched abortion?

She’s a globalist connected with LCWR.

“A new LCWR resource is now available on the LCWR website. The resource, An Invitation to Systems Thinking: An Opportunity to Act for Systemic Change, was developed by the LCWR Global Concerns Committee as a tool for using a systems approach to decision-making about issues both internal and external to the congregation, e.g., governance, mergers, formation, retirement, as well as justice issues.

The publication reflects the developments in the understanding of critical thinking and the complex nature of contemporary reality. As noted in one of the publication’s articles by Gertrude Foley, SC, “... systems thinking will prevent us from unconsciously employing the same mental models that are causing the problems that we want to solve.”
http://www.lcwr.org/lcwrprogramsresources/systemsthinking.htm

Systems analysis of culture is another code for universal religion and government. Culture change.

Her remarks are obtuse and designed to hide her beliefs which may be antithetical to Catholicism.

“As I consider the meaning of this award, I realize that the LCWR call to step into the chaos of the unknown- an unprecedented challenge today in this very conflicted world reality-, and NETWORK’s call to leadership in the global movement for justice are so very intertwined as to be inseparable. We are you in the Halls of Congress. Our missions in these times are more profound than any I and my companions ever knew. It isn’t the future structures of our individual congregations or even the future unfolding of religious life that is at stake. Rather, it is the realization that humankind has been cast into a deeper chaos, a chaos that is global, more enveloping, than at any other historical moment. And we know that as a prophetic entity, we can’t create boundaries to defend and preserve ourselves. Neither, it seems, is there a moment when we can stop to create the new.

We must fully immerse ourselves in this dark night, knowing that these dark times are the conditions for rebirth. Rudolph Bahro states that “When the forms of an old culture are dying, the new culture is created by a few people who are not afraid to be insecure.” And there is absolutely no reason for our insecurity or any reason for a lack of hope. As Vaclev Havel says: “Hope is a dimension of the soul, an orientation of the spirit and of the heart. It transcends the world that is immediately experienced and is anchored somewhere beyond its horizons.”

Further reading of this proponant of women priests, and other things:

“...http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-042099-225243/unrestricted/ADDENDUM.PDF

“Properly understood, the Gospel is a RADICAL SOCIAL MOVEMENT! Jesus fought
the prevailing attitudes of His time. He tried to teach another way of thinking and being
and acting. His whole mission was about transformation in order to bring fullness of life.
He came, not to die for us, as we were so well drilled,592 but to give life and to continue
to give life through us….” page 102

Forget the Salvic nature of Christ!!! He’s a revolutionary, get it!! Viva Che!

GAG.

“Prayer at DemocRAT National Convention”

Prayer?? At the RAT Convention?? Waiting for the howls from the ACLUers — separation of church and state and all that rot.

The Congregation of St. Joseph is a flaky order of modernist nuns. They have a labyrinth on their campus, which is a pretty good indication that they are pretty far out there. Moreover, the girls’ high that they operate, St. Joseph Academy, is very feminist in its outlook and is easily the most radical girls’ high school in the diocese.

Shouldn’t the headline read:”Pro-Murdering Idoit who pretends to be a NUN from Cleveland to speak at Anti-American, anti-christian Convention in Denver”?

Public support for party of death.
