An Interesting Addition to the Chicago Tribune's Religion Blog

Sister Anne Joan Flanagan, FSP, a Daughter of St. Paul stationed in Chicago, has recently been added to the panel of bloggers on the Chicago Tribune's religion blog, "The Seeker."  Her first post is a reaction to  a Tribune cover story on the predicament of couples who resort to IVF to resolve their infertility problems, and then face questions about the embryos that may never be born.  Her most recent post is an  interesting reflection on the messages sent by the various 'uniforms' people wear -- from her habit, to the military uniform and the "habit-like middle eastern clothing" worn by Major Hassan (the Fort Hood shooter).  Nice to see Tribune including the perspective of the lived experience of a woman  religious on their panel!  (Sr. Anne also has her own Nunblog.)
