      True, mine was an actualization to witness why we will be punished by God, not His annoited children, but to explain to those sinners who dont understand, like the prayers of St. Francis of Assisi!!!

      Be careful, your lust for power and your vanity is showing. Worry about your own soul.

    Please bear in mind while watching that these are actors, and that the young woman is not actually becoming a nun. It is a fictional highly idealized story whereas the reality could be very different, unhappily so. I have been a practising Catholic all my life, but saw many frustrated unhappy religious

      I am not trying to deceive anyone. I was a boarder at a religious order school and I saw much unhappiness and frustration in the Augustinian friars whom I lived beside

    The majority of people do not understand the religious life. It should also be remembered that the religious life is not for everyone. Society today is so selfish that the thought of giving up everything to devote one's life to Christ is abhorrent. "Take up your cross and follow me."

    The Bells of Saint Mary (1945) and The Nun's Story (1959): The Catholic Church and Her nunneries couldn't have asked for better propaganda films. Ten percent of my mother's HS graduation class of 1959, Little Flower in Philadelphia, joined the convent.
    Yikes.
