More Church idiocy

A Catholic nun was excommunicated after giving her approval for doctors to save a mother's life. Sister Margaret McBride, a hospital administrator in Phoenix, consented to the termination of a 27-year-old woman's pregnancy in November as a last resort, and the woman recovered. In return, Bishop Thomas Olmsted levied the penalty against McBride.

Total number of priests excommunicated as a result of the Church sex scandal: 0.

These are the kinds of things that keep me from returning to the Church.
