So I just got home from a wonderful evening filled with food, friends, and fun and I turned my computer on (as is my routine when I get home) and I check out the headlines on the handy "Windows Sidebar"--a new feature on the Vista operating system. First headline I see: "Priest Organizes Beauty Pageant for Nuns."
So in stunned disbelief I click on the link to find out more information and apparently it was an academic "Priest-type" guy that wanted to establish this thing to show the fine people of Italy and the world "the interior beauty of nun" "because they are not sufficiently appreciated by society."
Seriously? On a postive note, the pageant was cancelled and their was a lot outrage from various members of the community regarding the pageant. Even the nuns themseelves weren't too pleased with the idea (surprise!). The guy also said that he thought the pageant might bring more people in the Catholic realm, being that their numbers are dwindling each year and there aren't many nuns at the convent(?).
Wow, that's all I can say about that. Nothing sickens me more than the Catholic Church and it's insanely sick ways of doing things. I mean, seriously, was the sex abuse not enough??? Now we have to exploit women who decided to be nuns in order to be the exact opposite of what the rest of the world views women as...Seriously? Sorry if I offend any Catholics out there, but the Catholic Church is the biggest fucking joke ever and there is nothing that it has done to better mankind in any way. From the wars and the blessing of evil men, to the sex abuse, and now this, it is evident to me why the numbers are dwindling worldwide, not just in Italy.
So next time you meet up with a nun, thank God that she isn't in the bikini competition, not for your sake, but for hers.
