Nuns fight strip club going up next to convent that houses sick and elderly sisters

The opening of a strip club in a Chicago suburb may be the start of a holy war because of its placement next door to convent.

‘What are we trying to teach the children in the neighbourhood?’ Sister Marissonia Daltoe told the Chicago Sun Times.

Approval for the club, which will be called ‘Get It’, has already gone through and there is little that the neighbouring Roman Catholic nuns can do even though certain regulations were not properly followed.

The Missionary Sisters of Saint Charles Borromeo-Scalabrians are now trying to raise public awareness of their objections and see if there are legal grounds to keep the club from opening its doors.

‘Get It’ would not be the first strip club in the area, as another venue called ‘Scores’ is down the street, but the proximity to such a religious home only serves to highlight the moral differences in establishment. [more]
