    But she is not living according to the rules of the Vatican. Hence the investigation from the papal level, of her and of the other fairly liberal nuns in the U.S.

    Nuns should be seen and not heard, they are not to hold leadership positions, they are not to be seen as leaders, they are not to step outside the bounds.

    Sister Madonna is extraordinarily well known. I can't think of a single female triathlete I know who ISN'T familiar with Sister Madonna's story. (and who doesn't see her as a leader and inspiration) This is exactly the kind of notoriety the Vatican does NOT want for its females.

    Only males should fill those roles.

    Please support Sister Madonna and the other US nuns who are in non-contemplative activities.
