But ... but .... but ... < splutter > the nuns have to get rid of their habits, move out of the convent and get more in touch with the peeeeeeepul so they can remain relevant in today's world ...

Or some such drivel ...

I heard a lot of rot like that in the '70s, and the Orders that acted on such thinking are gone.

They're also being replaced.

The replacements ... are wearing habits.

Funny thing. Orthodoxy and a healthy respect for tradition beget vocations.
