TradCatKnight: “Catholic” Nuns Step Out in the Women’s March
Catholic Nuns Step Out in the Women’s March
Who is she and why does she carry this sign? The answer may surprise you.
In a testimony printed in the Global Sisters Report, we learn that this post-conciliar woman looking like any lay woman is a sister of St. Joseph who traveled from Philadelphia to Washington DC to march with fellow feminists in the Women’s March on January 21, 2017. Despite some trepidation about the pro-abortion platform of the marchers, Sister Colleen Gibson decided she had to go because of her deeply-shared concerns on social justice and ecological issues.
A Catholic religious sister, she takes her place among the marchers for women’s power and the feminist revolution. She also wants to send a strong signal to President Donald Trump of her vehement disapproval of many of his conservative policies, especially on issues like immigration, religious tolerance and environmental justice.
The ardent concerns of Sr. Colleen and the other marchers are listed in the “Unity Principles” on the Women’s March website, where we find causes that would comfortably fit on the Communist Party platform, such as “worker’s rights,” “gender justice,” “LGBT rights,” “reproductive rights.” There is also a clause on the rights of every person to clean water and air, and the environment’s right to protection that could have come straight from Francis’ Laudato Si’.

Sad to report, a multitude of Vatican II nuns numbered as marchers for the Revolution, lending their support to a radically pro-abortion and anti-Catholic platform. In the Women’s Marches in Washington and 500 other U.S. cities, there were representatives of the School Sister of Notre Dame, the Maryknoll Sisters, the Sisters of Mercy, Dominican, Franciscan and Providence Sisters, sisters from Orders with beautiful titles like the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary, and the Congregation of Our Lady of Charity of the Good Shepherd. The list goes on and on.
These nuns are rabidly militant in their leftist causes, prepared to conscientize young women on how to aggressively fight for their so-called rights. The Adrian Dominicans already have issued a statementstrongly condemning Trump’s order to advance construction on the Keystone XL and Dakota Access oil pipelines. A religious administrator of the Sisters of Providence of St. Mary of the Woods, Indiana, wants to “keep the energy going” by focusing on midterm elections to counter the Trump triumph that she says is aligned with misogyny, racism and fear of religious minorities. The key concern of the Maryknoll Sisters is the immigration issue. “We can’t let this become another Arab Spring that fizzles out. We have to organize, not agonize,” one proclaims.
