Bishop Kevin Vann probably does listen to the nuns -- it is good human resource policy, but he does not hear them? (See: "Catholic Church values its nuns," Tuesday) If he really heard them, he would take a courageous stand and speak out on this reprimand of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious.

This move against the sisters by Pope Benedict XVI's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith might be reason for a "gray divorce": 70-year-old nuns divorce 88-year-old cardinals. It is time to stand up for the sisters!
