Nun faces expulsion from convent after giving birth to baby - Independent.ie

When I initially posted concerning this story I was a bit snarky which some took to mean I was dishing on Sister Roxana and not considering she may have been raped. I am very well aware of the RCC's other dirty little secret and my reaction was not so much about her pregnancy but how some followers of the Church were reacting, ie. second coming, virgin birth, anti-christ.

That being said, Sister Roxana now faces the "consequences" (from the Church) for her actions,,,

A nun from El Salvador who gave birth to a baby boy in Italy has described him as "a gift of God" and pledged to take care of him as she faces expulsion from the convent.

"However, I am very worried about the commotion that this has stirred up. They are talking about this, not only in Italy but in my own country and I am afraid to return there."

The baby's birth has provoked an outcry in the Catholic Church since Sr Roxana took a vow of "poverty, chastity and obedience" when she became a nun in September 2012.

"How do I feel? More like a mum than a nun," she said after the birth of the baby.
