Answer 2

I think you have misunderstood the story. Especially you didn't read this

"It was not at all my intention to put nuns on the catwalk,"

Answer 3

yah they should its about time they style up that gown..maybe a pretty pink..they aint dead..

Answer 4

why shouldn't the nuns get them out for the

boys, what harm can a little fresh air do,

and i was going to buy a ticket for that :(

busby fly to scotland instead, you'll do :) x

Answer 5

That would have been a laugh to go and watch wouldn't it?

Yes they should be allowed to do it.

Answer 6

If you read the article that wasn't his intention it was an online thing and had nothing to do with physical attributes but interior beauty. Until he was getting nasty emails. As far as his vocations decreasing in Italy its only some orders. The vocations are increasing in many countries because some orders are emphasizing spiritual values more and social justice less. If your prayer life isn't in order you can't do anything of value for God's great glory.

Answer 7

Urgh.

I, for one, could do without seeing nuns in bikinis.

Answer 8

hi, by now you may have realised the story is not straight forward. i am a priest and believe me everything we say or do is turned and twisted by politicians or media in order to get a story or prove a point. we are normal people with values, not all of them are understood by everyone, but we never mean to upset anyone, after all i answer peoples questions, i marry people, i baptise, i turn up every sunday even if no one else does, and i do it because some days everyday working people need us. we are not paid, or in my church we are not, so try and think of some things you believe in, and your friends disagree with you, then welcome to my world. In Domino

Answer 9

I read your link and it makes more sense to me now. I was driving home and heard the 'catwalk' version on the radio. I thought it was a rather crude joke in bad taste! I'm not catholic but was quite taken aback at the way it was being discussed. I think in theory it seems a positive idea and a shame it wasn't publicized better. Maybe the priests seniors were jealous of the attention he'd get if successful? I don't know what the religions etiquette is mind you.

Answer 10

lol! Penguins On Parade...

Answer 11

He was misunderstood and stopped it for that reason-no don't think they should or would enter a beauty pageant lol!
