Question:

Dear Brother,

You mentioned this statement in one of your answers on the forum. "I have a nun friend who left her Franciscan convent because the sisters there were beginning to worship the goddess Sophia. She left and founded a new convent". I believe you completely, but how does that even happen? How does one who is a consecreted religious and a Bride of Christ get to that point let alone that this poor nun had to leave her convent because sisters (plural) were turning from our Lord? I am baffled.

Thank you for this website, you are in our prayers.

Dear Eugenia:

We are all sinners and we are all vulnerable to one degree or another. The situation is far worse than the story I told. Feminism has become a pandemic problem among female religious. It is so bad that we can never presume any female convent of monastery is loyal to the Church. Each one must be checked out on a case-by-case basis to discern if they are truly loyal to the Church. I think, however, that the Council of Major Women Religious are a group of orthodox female religious communities.

To learn the full extent of this feminist cancer, I suggest the book, Ungodly Rage: The Hidden Face of Catholic Feminism by Donna Steichen. This book was the hardest book to read that I have ever experienced. It will break your heart.

Donna Steichen is a journalist. She witnessed the feminism in the Church by going to their conferences. She also interviewed many feminist leaders. What she found out will knock you socks off.

We need to pray hard for our women religious. The devil is attacking them hard.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
