From the article:

She entered Sisters of the Holy Humility convent in 1966, and said in a 1984 anthology, "Lesbian Nuns: Breaking Silence," that she joined the convent because "there was no anti-war movement, no women's movement, no gay movement in Ohio in 1966" and that she "wanted to do something special, to have an impact on the world."

Not exactly a calling to God just because there was no radical movement to suite her taste.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta answered her call out of humility and understanding it was truly from God.

There is nothing to indicate this person had any sort of calling from God except she wanted to do something different -- which is a false pretense to enter a convent.

"She graduated from Cleveland State University with a degree in psychology in 1970, left the convent and became the drummer for a girl band, "The Satin Dolls."" - if she 'joined' the convent in 1966 and graduated CSU in 1970 - she pretty much used the Catholic church to pay for her college bills and then went to become a 'rock star' - isn't it amazing that some 35 years later they still identify her as a nun. I doubt if she ever went beyond a novice or took any vows.

Her statement about Ohio having no 'anti-s' in the late 60's is bunk.

she will do less harm where she is now - a life lived to justify one's deviate lusts ..a garbage dump would be fitting place for her remains.
