Dissident Nun Set to Address Canada's Televised Catholic Lenten Mission

This is just great...We already have too many people who are poorly catechized; we don't need a dissident nun who opposes true Church teaching and spreads false teaching.

The National Catholic Broadcasting Council (NCBC), which airs the daily Mass on Vision TV, has announced that they will be hosting a religious sister on their annual televised Lenten mission. But the nun in question, Sr. Joan Chittister, is renowned for promoting positions contrary to Christian teaching, including on the issues of abortion, contraception and women's “ordination.”

Sr. Joan Chittister will address this year's mission, which is set for March 29-30 on Vision TV with the theme “A God for All Seasons.” Sr. Chittister told LifeSiteNews.com (LSN) that her talk focuses on the “spirituality of aging,” but, she said, she is “more inclined to call it a lifestyle for the 21st century.”

Sr. Chittister also admitted to LSN that she holds positions diverging from Catholic teaching. “It's not an opposition position,” Yes it is "sister" she explained. “It is a position of query, of theological and scriptural commitment and search.”

For example, she said, “I felt that the question of the role and place of women in the Church was a necessary discussion, and that it stood on strong theological concerns.”
