Dominican nun stops work as abortion escort, but rips pro-lifers

November 06, 2009

Sister Donna Quinn, whose volunteer work for an Illinois abortion clinic forced an apology from her Dominican superiors, has announced that she will no longer escort women into the clinic. She explained: "I am very worried that the publicity around my presence will lead to violations of every woman's right to privacy and expose them to further violence." Sister Quinn continued to argue that women seeking abortions should be protected from pro-life counselors, whom she accused of waging a "war against women."

    This Sister obviously does not believe in the church's position on the sanctity of all human life and would encourage women to kill their baby. She should resign from the religious life and/or her order should expel her.
