Perhaps you saw the headline today:
Catholic Nuns Lead Raids on Brothels in India
According to the story by CNA reporter Carol Glatz, small groups of nuns in Kolkata, India, have been sneaking into local brothels in the cover of night to free young women and girls, some as as young as 12, from the horrors of prostitution. So far, the Sisters of Mary Immaculate (SMI) have helped law enforcement put 30 human traffickers behind bars. An impressive if only minor victory in the very real war against women.
Who were these nuns? What are there charisms? What motivated them to these dramatic cloak and dagger operations? My interest piqued, I went in search of more information about the Sisters.
I found the answers I was looking for in one picture:
But, surely, I thought, our religious sisters here in the West are doing great work for the cause of women as well, right?
Again, I found the answer in one picture:
These 'Nuns for Choice' like the 'Nuns on the Bus' have all the trappings of paganism. They call themselves 'Catholic' but they are in reality not.
