The Mother House of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet is just down the road from where I reside, in upstate NY. A few years ago, they offered a Good Friday reflection on the emergence of a seedling from soil. They now work with contractors to build homes for seniors and use those profits to fund their works.

Reprimanding those not following church doctrine is a misuse of power? Why don’t they just end their affiliation with that church and everyone is happy?

This goes for any group within any church, by the way.

Sounds like they'd be more comfortable as Unitarian/Universalist “nuns”.

Sister, you’re fired. Your agenda is now scorched. Go be chatty with Anita Dunn types, the only crowd left who is even remotely interested in your chest beating and complaints.

Our wonderful young new priest gave a lovely homily about these nuns today and discussed the pruning of the vine to make it stronger. I say it’s about time!

Even aside from all the asinine things this woman says, I look into her eyes and see no holiness or humility, only pride and arrogance. Sister, you are in my prayers.

As a rule, Sister Brigid McDonald tries not to pay too much attention to papal pronouncements, but Pope Benedict XVI’s recent decision to rein in American nuns, found by a Vatican investigation to harbor “radical feminist themes incompatible with the Catholic faith,” caught her attention.

That little nugget contains everything you need to know about the good sister and her heretic sect.

We help with the Occupy movement and the right-to-choice movements.

You can't be Catholic and pro-abortion. Thou shalt not commit murder.

These are not the Nuns I grew up with, who took their vows to obey.

These women have no intention of obeying , Not the Pope ,not the Bible, not God himself.

They should have left the Convent when they started to believe in feminismas a priority to their initial calling.

They have allowed themselves to become feminazi’s, not Nuns.

The Pope needs to come over here and kick ass.
Follow the rules or get excommunicated...
That nun is nothing more than a left wing rabble rouser who enjoys thumbing her nose to power. Power needs to clean house.

Misuse of power? The Pope IS the power in the Catholic church, other than God course. If she didn’t like the music he should have left the dance long ago.

MP: When you say “he,” you are talking about Benedict?

SBM: Yes. I still call him Ratzinger. That fits him better. But that is just a personal bias.

She demands respect but gives none.
