Are we going to lose Sister Madonna Buder?

I'm pretty sure competing in Ironman triathlons falls under the Vatican's "naughty" and "too involved in society" list.

U.S. nuns have supported women's rights, perhaps it's time for us to support nuns' rights.

From Wikipedia: As a nun with the Sisters for Christian Community, Sister Madonna has the freedom to choose her own ministry and lifestyle.

How long do you think that is going to last under Razinger? Under this investigation?

If we feel we should stand up for Sister Madonna Buder, shouldn't we also stand up for all the other U.S. nuns?

ETA: Letters of support for the Spokane area nuns can go here: http://www.dioceseofspokane.org/voca..._religious.php Sister Madonna is the contact for Sisters for Christian Community. Scroll down for contact info.

ETAx2: The more I read about this in various links, the more it sounds like an inquisition not just an investigation.
