Sad.
Clearly, you have never known any cloistered nuns.
Our family is friends with a Carmelite and she is about the most joy-filled person I have ever met. We pray for her and receive the benefits of her prayers as well. Every once in a blue moon, we go and visit. It is like entering another world. In many respects, I envy her because her life is so truly and completely devoted to Our Lord.

I think it’s hilarious when people who have NO CLUE about Cistercians mock them, criticize them, and generally go about appearing to feel superior to them.
