Today's generation of nuns are progressive women, two things the Church isn't used to
Nuns are an endangered species. They are dying and not being replaced.

If you think the news is bad now, a world without nuns would be a far worse place. The nuns that I know are much too humble to tout their achievements and all of the good they contribute to society, but make no mistake, they are an integral part of the fabric that holds our civilization together.
In 2014 there were just 49,883 religious Catholic sisters in the United States, down 13% percent from 2010 according to figures from the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate. To put it in greater perspective, that is a 72% decline since 1965.

So, someone needs to be bled, from believing families- in order for the throne of St. Peter, to continue? Not the draw of Christ? Interesting heresy.
You can find the chapter and verse if you do your research. No one can do that for you!
“Reader’s Guide to Lesbian and Gay Studies.” I’m sure there’s no agenda there... lol.
I owe her a grat deal because she was very kind to me, personally. But at the time I'm referencing 70's and early 80's) she ruined the Benedictine prayer life by neutering all the pronouns ("The Great Pronoun Reformation")--- couldn't even say "Our Father."
You have no idea what I am talking about do you?
The Catholic Church is a heresy?
Wow. THat’s a new one.
I don’t suppose you’d click on the site I provided.
There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be. Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
Revolt is coming, many Americans have bought guns over the last few years.
With the clean up of the seminaries and the growth of traditional orders, look for a spiritual springtime to come to the RC Church in America.
INDEED!
I...
must...
resist!!!
LOL
I see it that way. I couldn’t find anything in a cursory look. The orders that are growing are authentic, convents in which they wear habits. The Poor Clare Sisters of Perpetual Adoration for ex and the Dominicans of Nashville
George Weigel was sounding pessimistic in my search
Honestly have to say the sisters who were my teachers in HS were really good. However, my knuckles are a bit stiff as I get older thanks to them:)
Babel... I see the consequences of Babel everywhere, especially in America. The Left and their media constantly re-define words to mean what they want the words to mean... example: gay: all my life I thought it meant 'happy'; well, if people want it to mean something else that is ok... if everyone agrees to re-define the term. That is where their media enforces the protocols of Babel.

Hearing this, the ten began to feel indignant with James and John.
Acts 15:37-39
Now Barnabas was determined to take with them John called Mark. But Paul insisted that they should not take with them the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work. Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another.
Galatians 2:11
But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.
