Nuns on the Run?

                                   
                                      Well, at least they look like proper nuns

Tim Stanley has an interesting insight in his post for the Daily Telegraph......you may read it here

What a real nun looks like

"What on earth is LCWR when it's at home?"

Sr John Francis RIP

No lipstick, earrings or M & S cardigan, just a wimple, habit, rosary beads and a crucifix - plus a good Irish smile...invincible!

How to recognise a modernist nun

This is a real nun - not a modernist one

A true modernist nun is recognisable by the following:-

1. No habit
2. Hair styled by Mad Max
3. Couture by Oxfam
4. Make-up and Lipstick by Blind Pugh
5. Winning the fight against anorexia
6. Travel in packs
7. Frisbee earrings
8. Stainless steel vaguely cross shaped brooch
9. Over 70 years old
10. Lives in groups in a convent covent coven

This post was inspired by Making Things Visible, The Tenth Crusade and Fr Z.
