You know, I’ve seen Catholic Nuns all covered up, except for their faces - eyes, nose, lips, that’s it.
But I never worried about Nuns carrying bombs under their garb to detonate themselves on a bus or in a market.
True, but (shudders) rulers on the knuckles...I shall say no more...
True. But I would be happy with the eyes nose and face lol. At least you can see if they’re smiling or scowling and about to attack. This was JUST eyes and it was scary! at least to me.
Reminding me that once nuns dressed like Ingrid Bergman and recruited girls like crazy. After the ‘60d, they went to dressing more like nurses and then without head garb. Their numbers fell off tremendously. The symbolism was important. In the early ‘60s, a sister who was a friend of mine told me that if her order abandoned the habits, she was there. It would be as if the Marines were to abandon their distinctive garb and wear the same uniform as the Army. Small things can matter a lot. Which is why the Redskins should not give us up their nickname.
