From the director:
Her words, (the nuns) “I refuse to collaborate in my own oppression,” heartened me so much as a woman, an artist, a journalist, a recovering Catholic and an American I had to make the movie.

In many ways, the church has stifled my sexuality too. Indeed, having a vagina and breasts relegates me to utter and permanent second-class status in the eyes of the church.
How utterly pathetic. As soon as my rage passes, I will write a letter to the director and the good sister. With love, of course.
 
Fabricating instances of oppression to justify grave sin? Not a new trick. Citing primacy of conscience totally out of context while ignoring the need to constantly reform one’s conscience to bring it more in line with the truth (including the truth only found in Catholic Christianity)? Definitely not a new trick.

At the end of the fantasy novel The Amber Spyglass, the final installment in one of the most explicitly anti-Catholic works of fiction written in the last 30 years, something almost comical happens: The protagonists kill God and found the Republic of Heaven. Sister Jeannie is clearly trying to do the same.

God bless.

I had forgotten about that incident.
But wasn’t God some sort of old fading Agnel-type being? And wasn’t it and Armaggedon type of situation?
 
This nun is a known dissident for many years. Same old, same old: dissident feminist nun who advocates for gay relationships. Donna Steichen has written a very good book about nuns like sister Jeanne and it’s entitled: Ungodly rage
Great book! Highly recommend it to anyone interested in the feminist scourge in our Church.
