The Great Nunquisition: Why the Vatican Is Cracking Down on Sisters

Today's generation of nuns are progressive women, two things the Church isn't used to

Nuns are an endangered species. They are dying and not being replaced

If you think the news is bad now, a world without nuns would be a far worse place. The nuns that I know are much too humble to tout their achievements and all of the good they contribute to society, but make no mistake, they are an integral part of the fabric that holds our civilization together. 

In 2014 there were just 49,883 religious Catholic sisters in the United States, down 13% percent from 2010 according to figures from the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate. To put it in greater perspective, that is a 72% decline since 1965.

Because nuns don’t brag about all of the good that they do or hashtag how awesome they are on Facebook, many people have no idea about the things they accomplish on a daily basis.

You probably haven’t heard about Sister Joan Dawber. Sister Joan, a Sister of Charity of Halifax, runs a safe house in Queens for victims of human traffickingâ€â€former s-x and labor slaves. She takes these women in when they have no one else to protect them and risks her life to help them rebuild theirs.

...

The nuns nicknamed it the Great Nunquisition and in the past eight years they’ve come under scrutiny from the church patriarchy.

My old aunt was a nun :legend: she worked her whole life caring for people for no money. That's what it means like to be a nun. Not to troll on Gaga-fan forums and preach about what is right and what is wrong.

The nuns on this site care for eachother for no money. You must be talking about the extremist nuns who should be handled individually and do not represent The Nunnery. Have a blessed day and may Mother Tara bless you herself.

We don't claim to be actual nuns, we're doing this as a joke on a POP forum. I admire people like your aunt.

I know, but at least do the joke right. It's not all 'You're a sinner! Repent and pray, now my dear!'

Stand in the light, cast your shadow.

I didn't know about that decline... A world without nuns? No, thank you

Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention?

Well this is an apt news story, considering.  But this is sad, tbh.  Irl nuns do a lot of good work.

I'm talkin' 'bout forever, baby.
