    Stacey Dooley is living in a convent to explore the lives of the nuns and to see how they strive for a contented, meaningful existence. She speaks to Linda, who left behind her career as an occupational therapist nearly 40 years ago, handing over her life savings in the process in order to embrace a more frugal and communal way of living.

      Except it doesn’t, looking in from the outside it may seem that way. When you look at levels of community investment into things like children’s work, debt help, food banks etc the church is way way ahead of any other sector of society. There’s a concept that’s central to Christianity called sacrificial giving. The idea that it’s part of your faith to do without things you’d like so others less fortunate than you can have. Outsiders will never usually see this aspect of churches because the objective is to get on & help people, not make a noise about it.

    My friend became a nun by accident. She was supposed to be going on a hen party to Alicante and filled in the wrong form at passport control. She didn't even realise for a week because, as she said "we were supposed to be doing a themed escape room and meditation retreat so it all made sense at first." Anyway, she decided to stay there and is now know as Sister Extravaganza.

      @williama7124 2 года назад

      @@NOMADdaf well clearly the nuns get nothing. Your issue is with the church not the people who work for them, who believe they are doing good. The least they can have is their basic needs met. If they decide to sacrifice everything and all earthly pleasures in some belief to bring about peace or whatever it is that nuns do "WE" should put ourselves in their shoes and "WE" should have compassion for those who have less.
      Whether they are misguided or not, they have made a choice to forgo a certain lifestyle in the believe that it will bring them closer to god and believe that it will be a good thing for "US" all.
      as long as they arnt those scary catholic nuns who run on shame and splintered rulers, who cares?
      Let her not eat cake or have a new book or sleep will one pillow. If that brings her joy and she's not harming anyone who cares if "WE" have to pay her lecky bill? it works out as pennies when "WE" share it all out.
      Now that fat cat soulless priests at the top who horde all the money and does god knows what with it, thats another story.

    They never admit that they are in fact living off of other people that don't have this attitude. With out taking money from people that do have, they would be destitute, living in squaller. It's easy to be pious when someone else is paying your bills.

      No. Slavery is imposed by others. This is chosen, totally voluntarily, after much deliberation. Nobody just shows up at a convent and joins that day, discernment is a long process, candidacy and postulancy is a long process, novitiate is a long process, simple (preliminary) vows are several years' duration, and at any time in all this process, you can change your mind and leave, and get back your property. Or, you may be asked to leave. Not everyone is cut out for this and they won't take you if there are clear signs that this isn't right for you for the long haul.

      I agree, but by the same token, are we not also brainwashed?. To look a certain way, to be classed as successful, to be classed as a failure if you fall down on any of those things. To find a partner and produce children whether or not deep down it's what we truly want? We are all brainwashed. It's starts with parents putting their ideals upon us, then school, then employers, the government ad infinitum to death. It's just which school of thought you choose.
