According to the "National Catholic Reporter," many U.S. Catholic nuns are not answering the questions, or at least not all of the questions, being asked by the infamous Vatican study of U.S. women religious.
"Several women said canon lawyers told the women they were not required to answer all the questions. Religious, unlike bishops, priests and deacons, who make up the clergy, are not officially part of the church's hierarchical structure. According to this reasoning, women religious are responsible to their congregation leadership and to their constitutions."
One must wonder what motivates the Vatican. Why are they harassing the nuns who have dedicated their lives to following the gospels? The phrase, "control freaks," comes to mind.
And then to top it off, they are asking U.S. Catholics to pay millions of dollars to pay for this witch hunt.
