The nuns have become socialists;

Really? All of them? You might want to check your facts.

a far cry from the ones I had as teachers when I went to Catholic School.

I can't comment on what you had as teachers (I wasn't there) ... but are you seriously proposing that traditional, habit-wearing, faithfully Catholic nuns and sisters are extinct? Again, you might want to check your facts.

True enough, AB. The Carmelites, for examples, are still going strong.
There is a convent of nuns who are the SILENT ones who live in cloister, not ever even seeing their family except behind the screen. Their purpose in life is to worship God and pray, pray, pray. Their cloister is in the HAIGHT-ASHBURY district of San Francisco.
