Two of the nuns are members of "Jonah House" community/Baltimore founded 30 years ago by the late Phil Berrigan. Jonah House is a nonviolent resistance community that has initiated and sustained the international ploughshares movement over the last 20 years. Jonah House emerged out of the draft board raid movement of the Vietnam War period.
The other nun is member of the Washington state "Ground Zero" community that set up 20 years ago next to the Trident Sub Base at Bangor.
Human blood is often donated and used to stain the hi tech weapons of mass destruction many launched by technocrats who will never see the blood they spill or the bodies they burn. Blood is a powerful symbol that needs little explanation. We stained the U.S. Navy War Planes at Shannon with blood predicting the bloodshed that was to follow in Iraq due to these killing machines ppassing through Ireland.
Witch hunts are conducted by moral cowards relying on crowd hysteria to masquerade their own agendas. In the case of "good guy" its probably his confusion between collective mediocrity & democracy, cynicism & wisdom.
The abusive term "faggot" springs from the burning of witches and other dissidents.
Cultivated ignorance is a mechanism often employed by first world white males so they can sleep at night.
I suppose the penguins[nuns] cant abuse kids sexually or phyisically anymore.And praying and self flagellationn is rather passe.along with fasting,etc.i suppose they had to have a outlet for their pent up sexual and physical frustration.
so their get their jollies by joing a weird cult who thinks they can stop wars by denting aircraft.Thank god they live in a country where their religious freedoms are graunteed.
Hey Lonely Gunman..sounds like a little sexual projection happening on you part. Scared of celibate women uhhhh? makes ya feel a little redundant in what you've got to offer the world. Same kind of scumbag slur by Kissinger (check his official biography under the "Berrigan" reference) on those of the Catholic Left who tried doing a citizens' of arrest of him while he was organising the napalming of Indo-China. J. Edgar Hoover hyped it up into a conspiracy to kidnap trial at Harrisburg and the defendants were acquitted.
There only crime - as with these 3 good women - was that that they were ahead of their time!
Drop the gun and make a friend lonely man and you won't be reduced to trolling the irish internet...get a life!
The catholic church is in NO WAY a progressive organisation. They are holding back the workers movement with promises of riches in the next world instead of fighting for a better world here.
Break with mystics in the church!
