the world’s first transgender Catholic nun

  • From 2017, although it was accepted as a novice in 2014.

    A Carmelite Convent in Ontario, Canada, is taking support of transgenders a step further. It has accepted a man who calls himself a woman into the community. “Sister” Tia Michelle Pesando, formerly called Ted, is being touted by progressivists as “the world’s first transgender nun,” breaking the “taboo” of the Catholic Church that she supposedly uncharitably imposed for centuries.

    The First carmelite transgender Tia PesandoTransgender Tia Pesando, accepted as a Carmelite novice
    After 28 years living as a man, this Canadian decided to undergo hormone therapy and “transition” to the female genre. Two years later, “the call of God” came and he declared himself a “consecrated virgin.” Next, Pesando decided to break the dividing wall still standing on the outskirts of what he/she calls “Francis’s opening” to the LGBT communities and become a Carmelite nun.

    In his book, Why God Doesn’t Hate You, Pesando develops the theme of God’s unconditional acceptance and love of everyone, regardless of gender identity and sɛҳuąƖ orientation. It is an apologia for all unnatural sin and sinners: ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs and transgenders. Pretending to base himself-herself on the Saints and Doctors of the Church, Pesando offers a novel doctrine: The only important thing is love. He/she boldly applies St. Augustine’s famous command “Love and do what you will” to the sins against nature.

    Homos and transgenders should love and not fear God, Pesando affirms, quoting St. Therese of Lisieux who wrote, “How can I fear one I love?” God’s love supersedes any notion of justice or sin, Pesando declares. God does not assign gender at Creation, according to this Vatican II’s New Morals. He continues to love man unconditionally, even if the man decides to pretend to be a woman or vice-versa.

    First, we had the post-Conciliar Church and Popes stop teaching about sin. There are many youth today who have no notion of what a mortal sin is. Second, now, they take us a step further into the reign of Satan: accepting the unnatural sins of sodomy and transgenderism in the name of charity. It is a new doctrine that rejects the constant teaching of the Catholic Church.


    “From a theological perspective, I think I have a solid argument,” Pesando claims. This is wrong and ridiculous. Fifty years ago no Catholic priest or theologian would have taken such a “perspective” seriously, holding it inadmissible into the sacrosanct grounds of Catholic teaching. Today, we have a Pope who encourages the Church to “accompany” and “minister to” these scandalous sinners in their sins and the Carmelite Order accepts a transgender as a novice.

    The tolerance adopted by Catholics after Vatican II has reached these inconceivable heights, certainly unsustainable for Catholics who follow the immutable teachings of the Faith.

  • I hold it true, whate'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.

  • Flashback: “Cardinal” Burke accepted TranssɛҳuąƖ Man as “Nun” in early 2000’s. From: Novus Ordo watch

    The thing from Canada looks satanic.  Just a lazy twisted boy looking for a nice gig. 

    The saints have plenty to say about sodomites.



    May God bless you and keep you

    Yes, it would seem this was the "first"... unless a transsɛҳuąƖ is different than a transgender? I can't keep up with all of the "identities".

    Also, fixed the link.  It didn't work for me.

    Transgender is someone who "identifies" a different sex that how they were born.

    TransɛҳuąƖ is someone who has had a sex change.

    Pesando still has a penis while Green doesn't.

    But it would seem that one would have to be transgender before transɛҳuąƖ.  So, Green would then still be the "first".
