The War on Nuns: Two Women Go to Rome : The New Yorker

The War on Nuns: Two Women Go to Rome : The New Yorker: “I think the inference that many people could draw from the publication of the Vatican document is that we are unfaithful,” Sister Pat Farrell told the National Catholic Reporter. “We really do not see ourselves in that way.” She added that speaking up was “a sign of our deepest faithfulness to the church,” because there were “questions that the people of God need to raise, that we need to talk about together in a climate of genuine dialog.”

Is that a conversation the Vatican is ready to have? Two women are going to Rome to find out.
