NY Wants to Jail Nursing Home Nuns for Not Embracing Gender Delusion, and That’s Not the Worst Part

[jacksonlamb]

Don't let the left's phony embrace of Pope Leo fool you. They despise the Catholic Church and everything it stands for.

Some do. Most despise your rightwing type of hypocrisy.

 

[jacksonlamb]

Mashmont, shut up.

No — New York State is not threatening to jail the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne simply for refusing “gender ideology.” What is true is that:

• New York has a statewide anti‑discrimination regulation for long‑term‑care facilities.
• The Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne have filed a federal lawsuit arguing that the regulation violates their religious freedom.
• The regulation includes general penalties for any licensed facility that violates state health regulations — including fines or, in extreme cases, criminal penalties.
• There is no case, action, or threat in which New York has said it intends to imprison these nuns.

The “jail the nuns” framing is advocacy language, not a description of an actual enforcement action.

Could you specify the hypocrisy you accuse me of?

 

[jacksonlamb]

Could you specify the hypocrisy you accuse me of?

Oh, typical right-wing projection and gaslighting, the general accusing your enemy of doing what you are doing. Your political persecution of Dems by the DOJ is classic GOP bad behavior.

So no specific example.

Of course not. See above ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

So no specific example.

Their TV only teaches them catch phrases -- no specifics.

[Papageorgio]

Yeah, the Dems parrot the Maga Christians. How about that?

The Democrats and Republicans want whatever their billionaires supporting them want.

 

[jacksonlamb]

So no specific example.

You don't need what is common knowledge, Mash.

You know it is true.

 

[Mashmont]

You don't need what is common knowledge, Mash.

You know it is true.

It's not true. That's why you can't give a specific example.

They are dedicates, and have been taking care of the dying for some 125 years.

Their founder was the daughter of Nathaniel Hawthorne.

New York State has decided that the women who have spent 125 years washing, feeding, and sitting with the dying poor need to be taught a lesson in gender ideology — or face jail time. That is not a rhetorical flourish. It is the actual situation facing the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne, an order of Catholic nuns who run Rosary Hill Home in Hawthorne, New York, a 42-bed facility where terminal cancer patients who cannot afford care go to spend their last days in dignity, free of charge.​

​

The state of New York would now like to require these sisters to assign patient rooms by gender identity rather than biological sex, grant access to opposite-sex bathrooms, use preferred pronouns, undergo state-mandated training in gender ideology, and post notices of compliance with the progressive vision of human nature — or risk fines, loss of their license, and up to one year in prison.​

​

...​

​

The order was founded in 1900 by Mother Mary Alphonsa Lathrop — the daughter of Nathaniel Hawthorne — who resolved to give her life to what she called the “cancerous poor.” She wrote that she had set her “whole being to endeavor to bring consolation to the cancerous poor,” and the congregation she built has honored that charge for more than a century, asking nothing from those they serve. No insurance. No government reimbursement. No payment of any kind from patients or families. Just consecrated women caring for the dying as if, in the words of their mission, they were caring for Christ himself.​

​

...​

​

The sisters’ attorney, L. Martin Nussbaum, put it plainly: “This law imposed on the Dominican Hawthorne Sisters is a form of gender ideology virtue signaling, to require these sisters to be trained in an ideology entirely contrary to Catholic belief. Why are we doing this? We don’t even have such patients. It’s the state requiring these holy nuns to bend the knee to an ideology contrary to their faith.”​

​

That framing deserves to be taken seriously. The state is not responding to a documented harm. It is not protecting patients who have been mistreated at Rosary Hill. It is compelling ideological conformity from a religious institution that has, by every measurable standard, served the public with extraordinary care and compassion. When government power is used not to correct a wrong but to enforce a worldview, the word for that is coercion.​

Just when you think the left can't get any crazier.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

It's not true. That's why you can't give a specific example.

.

Aren't they fun, with their desperate terror?

.

 

[struth]

Are the nuns being charged or the Order?

The nuns make up the order. So charging the order is charging the nuns

Your pointless post is pointless

 

[struth]

Multi-gender identification is a scientific fact: tough.

Yes it’s a well know mental disorder

Your point?

 

[jacksonlamb]

It's not true. That's why you can't give a specific example.

I don't need to. The law is clear as to what it can do and not do. The nursing sisters are in no danger of incarcertation.

 

[jacksonlamb]

The point is that they are in no danger of going to jail.

The nuns make up the order. So charging the order is charging the nuns

Your pointless post is pointless

 

[struth]

The point is that they are in no danger of going to jail.

You are basing that on what ?

 

[jacksonlamb]

Yes it’s a well know mental disorder

Your point?

Yes, that is the position of the mentally disordered, like you.

You are basing that on what ?

The law.

 

[struth]

Yes, that is the position of the mentally disordered, like you.

The law.

1) I don’t have that disorder.
2) what law says it’s ok to jail nuns for not allowing men in women’s bathrooms?

You are not stupid, so don't ask stupid questions.
