Sister Betty, It's Come to This?


From the AP: Protester Betty McKenzie, a nun from St. Paul, Minn., gives a peace sign after she climbed under a barricade outside of the Landmark Center near the Xcel Center during an anti-war rally at the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., Sunday, Aug. 31, 2008.

Peace sign flashing, habit spurning, cropped-coiffure donning liberal activists, dolled up in polyester clearance-rack accouterments from Wal-Mart: How did female religious orders in the US fall so far, so fast? Sister Betty, please, ixnay with the granola peace sign, pick up your rosary, don a habit, stand outside an abortion clinic and make your foundress proud.
