A Spanish Benedictine nun has left her religious community to enter politics, running for the leadership of a Catalan separatist party.

Sister Teresa Forcades—described by the ANSA news service as “pro-independence, feminist, leftist, and supporter of the rights of the poor—has opted for a year away from religious life, to run in September elections and establish a political base. She has asked her superior to allow her to visit the community once a week, as her schedule permits, for prayers.

I agree, she needs prayers

Women need to wake up and realize what God wants from them.
The Sisters are needed in hospitals, schools and nursing homes. That is how to help the poor.

In other words, a typical Novus Ordo "nun".

It will give new meaning to the phrase "a visiting sister".
