Fresh Air Weekend: Bishop Blair, Sister Farrell

Interview: 
http://www.npr.org/2012/07/28/157441054/fresh-air-weekend-bishop-blair-sister-farrell

Bishop Explains Vatican's Criticism Of U.S. Nuns: Bishop Leonard Blair talks about his Vatican-ordered assessment of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, an organization that represents 80 percent of Catholic sisters in America. He says the LCWR is promoting a "new kind of theology that is not in accordance with the faith of the church."

An American Nun Responds To Vatican Criticism: The Vatican recently announced that it would completely make over the Leadership Conference of Women Religious because of its "radical feminist themes incompatible with the Catholic faith." Sister Pat Farrell, who heads the organization, says many of the charges are unsubstantiated.

(Note: I counted multiple factual error and/or distortions, and at least one logical fallacy.  Guess who spoke them.)
