Nuns vs Strip Club

A group of Religious Nuns (The Missionary Sisters of Saint Charles Borromeo-Scalabrians) are fighting to prevent a strip club from opening right next to a convent that houses elderly and infirmed members of the order.


This is an interesting story and one can take many views on it.  Communities often fight for the removal of businesses that may ruin the image of a town or may not be wanted.  That being said, the Nuns have a right to fight this club from opening right next door.  However, the Nuns can also give Christian witness to patrons of this bar and close it down that way.  

In any event, I hope this situation is resolved in the best way possible.
