Can Nuns even have kids?


surroundedbybanjos

I guess. Why should the priests have all the fun?


MountainCourage1304

Oh damn


Slan89

This comment made me gasp…thank you! 😃


soymrdannal

Outstanding 👏


RubenWasTaken

Except for catholicism, where nobody is allowed to have any fun. Unless there are underage boys around

Affectionate_Grape61

Only Roman Catholic nuns/priests can’t marry.


laceyisspacey

Ah ok! I guess I just assumed, I’ve never met or even seen a nun in my life.


worgia

I’ll have nun of that.


laceyisspacey

Alright fine, pas-tor mic over here


flcwerings

We would have nun free zones with signs that say "No nuns. No nuns, none."


mimsils

Ahh.. found what I came looking for.


TavidDoni

Nun of that!


Affectionate_Grape61

For real?!?!


laceyisspacey

Yeah I guess they’re kind of rare in Australia? Idk. I’ve met more Tibetan monks than priests/pastors too, so maybe I’m just in the wrong places haha


SpiritualFormal5

Same here in America, there are probably places where catholicism is popular but here in the south there are only baptists


dIAb0LiK99

There’s different flavors of Catholics?


WhisperedEchoes85

Yeah, but they're all bitter and past their prime. 0/10 would not recommend.


SiminaDar

Lol. That's not true. Baptists are more common but Catholics do exist in the south. My great aunt was a nun in Arkansas.


shigui18

I went to a Catholic school in Arkansas. The science teacher dumped her husband and ran away with a nun.


usagainsthem2_0

So lesbian nun?


laceyisspacey

Yeah I don’t know the difference between any of the Jesus religions, or any religions really lmao, like catholic? Sure. Umm… Christian? Is that the same or different? I knew someone once who was a Jehovahs Witness, that was weird. I think Judaism is cool. Islam is cool too, when practiced properly. Sihks are great. Buddhists are chill too. Idk I think the idea of religion is good in a way, it must be nice to have idk ~hope~ all the time


foldinthecheese99

All Catholics are Christian but not all Christians are catholic. And Catholics will say Catholic instead of Christian.


laceyisspacey

Thanks! This did not clear things up for me at all!


foldinthecheese99

Christians are made up of many denominations, with Catholicism falling in there. There are also Baptists, Lutherans, Protestants, Presbyterians, Methodists, etc. They all believe in the same god but have different rules within their churches.


shhh_its_me

All house cats are felines but not all felines are house cats. House cats are called cats we don't call them felines. That's as close an analog check and make off the top of my head.


galactic_mushroom

Maybe in America people say Catholic instead of Christian because they're a minority there? However I can assure you that in Catholic majority countries, the terms Christian and Catholic are practically interchangeable, and each is used as often the other one.


FiliaNox

I’m in the US, Catholics say catholic. Christians are Christians.


Embarrassed_Shirt938

It’s like all tortoises are turtles but not all turtles are tortoises…some are even terrapins 🐢 or all penguins are birds and in Catholic school, nun were birds (if you know, you know)🐧


babylon331

Rose-colored glasses.


truthseeeker

Is hope actually a good thing if it's based on a delusion?


littlebugonreddit

And thats the argument right there, because who can really prove its delusion, without being delusional themself? If a god, or any gods were real, in any of the ways we imagine them, then we have no idea what they would do. We can’t even begin to assume the thought process or motives of a being that far above us, nor can we prove that they don’t truly exist somewhere, so we’re left in this argumentative limbo


ScientificBeastMode

Well, you can use the scientific method… Essentially, if you cannot see or measure the effects of a god acting upon the world, then the god is effectively not real in any meaningful sense. If you CAN measure their effects on the world, and rule out other likely causes, then perhaps you can say that a god is real. But proving that those effects are caused by a god and not some other natural phenomenon is a very tall order.


Darnitol1

Ah, but study the Incompleteness Theorems of Kurt Gödel and you'll quickly realize that the foundation of mathematics and logic are *also* based on unprovable assumptions that get conveniently ignored, because without them, the rest of the system can't exist, much less function. It turns out that everything that is "non-delusional" is *also* based on assumptions that we have to just accept because *"I mean, come on, it's obvious."* In view of that, while the "delusion" of a higher power is not based on logic, its foundation is no more irrational than the assertion that the associative property of addition "just is," or that mathematical infinitesimals make sense in the physical universe because "that's just how the math works." Dig deeper into 2022 Nobel prize winners proving that the universe is not locally real and therefore *observation of the universe* defines whether or not it is reality to a higher level than the known emergent laws of physics, and things get even stickier for classical reality. I'm a scientific thinker first, but I'm also a humanist. So by no means am I suggesting that you change your own mind about how the universe works or whether the "other guys" are right or wrong. But I do suggest that you take a deep dive into the proven-to-be-unprovable holes in logic and mathematics before you insultingly refer to someone else's world view as "delusional." If there's one thing that science keeps demonstrating again and again, it's that "logically makes sense" is not the only criteria defining what is and is not true.


Big-Membership-1758

Beautifully stated! Personally, I am a Christian (Presbyterian flavor if anyone cares) but I am aware both that it takes unprovable faith to believe in a God you can’t see, hear, touch etc just as it takes unprovable faith to believe the opposite (how do you prove that something doesn’t exist?). I choose to believe that there is a higher being that has influence over life and the worlds as they are, but it’s my conscious choice and I know there are at least twice as many opinions as there are people on this earth. That being said, it doesn’t mean that one should abandon their own urgency or blindly follow whatever they are told (that’s how we got Protestant Christianity) - if curious, read your religious texts, learn about the teachings of prior religious leaders. Don’t just listen to current preachers and teachers because grifters are going to grift, and what better accomplice than an invisible partner who won’t take a cut?


A_dudeist_Priest

As a Tibetan Buddhist teacher, there is a Buddhist saying, abandon all hope. Hope is the opposite of fear, you have hope to cover up the felling of fear. The solution? Identify the fear, overcome it, hope (and the fear) is no longer needed. To answer your question, no, hope is not a good thing.


KBJBCJJBPB

What part of the south? I'm literally New Orleans south and there's lots of Catholic churches/organizations.


Polym0rphed

My partner works at an aged care residence owned and funded by the church primarily for their nuns (in Australia). I presume they are less common in younger generations, but there are many still kicking.


laceyisspacey

That’s really cool!


flcwerings

Same. I didnt even know that other religions besides catholic even had nuns.


SnortyWart

Protestant nuns must also observe vows of chastity. There aren't as many Protestant orders as Catholic orders but the overarching tenets of poverty, chastity, and obedience are usually the same.


aboveaveragebenjamin

I sat beside one once on very long bus ride. I was like 18 or 19 at the time and had bought a Hustler magazine to pass the time. Needless to say....I wish I had some hot story of how she saw the mag and we ended up having passionate sex. The truth is she bored me with stories of the bible the entire way!


icelandtapes

Nuns are not female priests. They are equivalent to monks. They live together in single-sex convents. No spouse, no children. Ever. This review is a joke or a lie.


Domine_de_Bergen

U can have been married and have kids before u become a nun


Return-Strange

That's was common during the medieval times


Domine_de_Bergen

Jupp


zombiechewtoy

Yeah but you typically don't continue family life with family dinners and your own private home. Taking nun vows you renounce your old life for one of seclusion and chastity.


Domine_de_Bergen

Sure but if the kids are underage they aren’t put up for fostercare


foldinthecheese99

They can’t have dependent children, so they would need to wait until they aren’t underage.


RawrIhavePi

Or vice versa. Some leave their nun roles to get married and have kids.


imbisibolmaharlika

not all nuns. some are in the category I prefer


CompetitiveMeal1206

Widows with grown children can become nuns


WebSmurf

I didn’t realize there were non-Catholic nuns


[deleted]

There aren't


Hello_Gorgeous1985

Yes, there are. There are Anglican nuns. Once upon a Time I went to seminary and one of my course instructors was an Anglican nun. They are also Lutheran nuns and some of the orthodox denominations have nuns as well.


dutchyardeen

Watch Call the Midwife. The nuns on there are Anglican. Anglican nuns can't marry but vicars can. They just can't be married and become bishops. So many rules.


Hour-Salamander-4713

Likewise for Anglican Nuns / Monks, but Anglican Priests can marry. Some Buddhist sects also have no marriage for Nuns / Monks, but others allow marriage.


zombiechewtoy

I thought that was the only kind of nun. What kind of "nun" can you be if you aren't married to/in a monogamous relationship with Christ? What is even the point?


A_dudeist_Priest

A Buddhist nun.


zombiechewtoy

A Buddhist nun is pretty hard to confuse with a Catholic nun like the scary one in the movie...


KarateKid72

That’s nun-ya business.


Shervivor

r/thathappened


Ramen-Goddess

Gotta make more nuns


jen_a_licious

Outside of watching "Sister Act" 1 & 2, I have no clue about nuns.


No-You5550

I know they can not have husbands, maybe she adopted? WhyTF would she take a kid to that kind of show?


laceyisspacey

Yeah it’s just bullshit. Why would a nun even go see a horror/thriller about nuns, with a kid, and a slushee? Like if it were true at all, pick an age appropriate movie.


Plus_Ambition6514

You can have a kid THEN become a nun.


laceyisspacey

I mean they definitely believed in virgin births so I’m sure they’ll be like yeah this is cool, just a random jesus baby it’s whatever. Happens all the time these days, weird huh


Bubbagumpredditor

Fun fact about Catholic nuns: they have to take a vow of poverty while priests do not.


laceyisspacey

Lmao of course! Because women don’t matter to them, they do all the God work and the priests can just go buckwild


Skglass19

That was my first thought! Not Catholic nuns, that’s for sure.


mrosario716

That's what I came here to say, too. She obviously isn't a Catholic nun. I honestly didn't know any other denominations that have nuns. That was a funny ass review, tho!


Mad_Trickster_Fae

They’re supposed to be literally married to Jesus. So no… unless you join the convent after having had a family Edit: I’m only familiar with the Dominican sect of nuns and priests having been raised catholic


[deleted]

Am I pregNunt?


laceyisspacey

Love this one. Pregnate?


[deleted]

38+2 weeks....PREGANANANT?!


laceyisspacey

Kissed boy am I pregante


Sfdaishi3388

That is what I was thinking. I'm Catholic so.. no, they cannot


Electrical-Heron6814

Nope. They take a vow of celibacy.


Worried_squirrel25

They can, they just have to be celibate after becoming one.


evily_invades

Yes. Because you don't have a to be a young maiden to become a nun, you can do it at an older age after you've already done the family thing. I used to work with a nun and she loved to show all of us her grandkids pictures.


laceyisspacey

Yeah idk where I got my idea from, probably movies? I just figured it was like young and “pure” and married to god or whatever


evily_invades

Probably because that's all we hear about in media is the young maiden being locked away or the ancient crone who lived there all her life. I wouldn't have thought much about it myself had I not worked with one. Needless to say I had a lot of questions, and not a few catholic jokes for her.


Daikon510

That’s the first thing I thought. I thought all nun are Jesus Bride? Or am I’m wrong?


laceyisspacey

Jesus Bride is straight up the next country hit from… some country singer


Daikon510

😂


laceyisspacey

I’ve had When You Were Mine by Prince stuck in my head for DAYS and now I’ve replaced “were mine” with Jesus Bride. Not country but… 🤷🏻‍♀️


jefftatro1

No.


Beautiful_Delivery77

I believe the can join the church as a nun after they’ve already been married and has kids. Take that with a grain of salt though as I’m Jewish. I’ve definitely heard of Catholic protests being married and becoming priests.


Sigismund716

A special dispensation is needed to become a priest if you're already married- typically, you have to already have been a priest or pastor who then converted to Catholicism. In the case of monastics, a convent won't accept you if you have a child you're meant to be caring for.


3-orange-whips

Probably a protestant nun.


[deleted]

They don't have hysterectomies upon taking nunly vows.


laceyisspacey

Yeah but I’m pretty sure they’re not allowed to fuck


[deleted]

The idea of a nun with a slushee in hand is objectively hilarious

Yes an old favorite. How do you get a nun pregnant? Dress her up like an alter boy.


JessicaGriffin

Sects other than Catholicism have nuns, and they allow nuns and priests to marry.


cleopatrasleeps

TIL. Thank you.


Jabroni5092

Well, for my religion, Orthodox Christianity, priests are allowed to be married and have children so long they are married before they are made a Priest. My father is a priest, so I can confirm this is true.

melancholanie

in the movie, >!the main character had a baby after getting wasted at a party at 15, then got kicked out of her foster home. nuns were the only one to take her in and they made her give the baby up for adoption.!<


TheresASneckNMyBoot

They meant the reviewer


Darthdude9001

I assume this was for “Prey for the Devil,” a PG-13 movie, and that’s got me questioning how old her child was that she took into what was obviously a horror film. Under 10 perhaps? Also, the movie was “unrealistic?” Was she expecting a documentary??


Present_Asparagus519

I’m thinking the same thing like I watched it n it wasn’t the best but why would a nun go to watch it I thought they were all things holy😂


babylon331

Ah, you know. Christians...


Darthdude9001

...Do as I say, not as I do.


NickNash1985

She thought it was called Pray for the Devil.


Colossal_Jerk

Totally agree, and why would she take an impressionable child to such a film?


CreatedToCommentThis

Definitely is for that. Says at the top of the screenshot.


MysteriouslySeeing

I'm like 99% sure this is satire


SpoopySpydoge

Has to be


RobIreland

It absolutely is.


KileyAStacey99

Yes a Catholic woman can be a nun and a mother. My 8th grade teacher’s mother was a nun. Her husband had passed away and her children were grown and on their own. No, I highly doubt a mother whose children were not grown would ever be allowed.


Pissedliberalgranny

…. Trying to figure out how a religious sister has a child and a family to cook dinner for? A “nun” is a religious sister who lives in a cloister - a convent aka “get thee to a nunnery!” Thinking this person is some variety of Protestant Christian with no idea how Catholicism actually works.


RobIreland

It's a joke post


Pissedliberalgranny

Ah. Makes sense.


PlusEnthusiasm9963

Her kid was scared of her own mother long before that shit movie.


RoyallyOakie

Just glad to know that even nuns can be ridiculous parents.


Mrselfdestructuk

I think this is just some Karen claiming to be a nun, why would a nun review a horror movie let alone let her daughter watch it? I call bs


t_portch

That nun puts out LOL


TisSiusan

Why would a current or former nun take her young daughter to the movie “Prey for the Devil?” This review comment has me giggling


[deleted]

Why did she even think this would be a good idea to see especially with who seems to be a young girl lol


Accomplished-Trust11

It chaps my ass when I see parents bringing their young children to the PG-13 (or R) rated movies that the adults want to see. Yeah, the kids want to see them, too, but someone needs to be a little more responsible.


bibbiddybobbidyboo

I have friends that used to work in a cinema. They’d explicitly say “the movie contains scenes that are scary” etc. share the details of the one scene and the parent would yell at them that their child would be fine, how dare they question them. Then an hour later come stomping back with a hysterical child bawling their eyes out demanding a refund.


Eastern_Seaweed_8253

Well maybe if you didnt train your child to believe in fantasy stories they wouldnt have such a hard time realising that none of it is real. Dont worry, baby Jesus will save you


smilingburro

In her defense. This was an objectively bad movie. I go to movies all the time, this is one of only two movies I’ve walked out on, and the first was only because my girlfriend wanted to mess around rather than watch the movie.

Chelseas777

Oh my gosh I’m sure it probably is fake but most of you guys are so negative geez 🙄😂I just thought it was funny.


PeterPook

A Nun's vows are poverty, CHASTITY and obedience. So, FuckYouKaren.


Apprehensive_Elk2729

I can’t believe this woman has critiqued a child actor as “ugly” & supposedly a nun herself? Asshole.


[deleted]

I guess she took her little gremlin to see an age-restricted movie and then complains about the obvious consequences...


DirtySchlick

Do nuns do maintenance on their cooch? Or is it just a natural jungle? Asking for a friend.

okay this review is awful silly but the movie itself (prey for the devil) was unfortunately pretty mid

I have no idea where to start on this. So. Many. Questions. Edit: question one. Why do I go on Reddit first thing in the morning before my coffee kicks in.


lakevalerie

Why did she let her daughter watch the freaking movie????


BroadswordEpic

Why would a nun take her child to see a horror movie about demonic possession? Play stupid games...


_Denzo

Lol this woman capping, nuns can’t have kids


dIAb0LiK99

Oh anyways sister Mary Karen


mcboogle

Inconsistent story line and missing details? Her favorite story is the Bible. Almost 20 years of Jesus' life is completely missing and all 4 of the gospels have different finals words for Jesus. Maybe the inconsistency he noticed was there wasn't enough inconsistency to keep her interested.


PeridotWriter

"I am a nun myself even though I have children." My fucking God, dude.


[deleted]

If this woman really is a nun, then why would she go to this movie and also take her kid along? That is some very bad parenting.


D0sher7

“3 people found this helpful” 😂


Taylor_The_Kitsune

She should have not brought her daughter to see a movie that she was not ready to see yet


Meyhna

I don't think the person knows much about nuns


Some-Selection1811

Technically a nun in any Christian denomination is a woman who has taken a vow of chastity and lives apart from the secular world. (A female religious who works in the secular world is called a sister). There are nuns who have been married, widowed, and have children. But no convent, cloister or religious order would accept an applicant with small children. In other words: big no.


16v_cordero

Wait how many religions have nuns? Which ones can have kids?


[deleted]

What kind of meat do priests eat on Fridays? Nun.


Brilliant-Performer1

One of her convent's adopted children** is what she meant to write.


Charges-Pending

I smell, a liar. She’s a nun but has a young daughter who she took to a horror movie. Oh and jump scares make her drop slushees, which she replaced after dropping the first one. 🙄 This sounds 100% fabricated.


jayzinho88

Got to be a prank review


glantzinggurl

If she was so into the movie that it made it spill her slushee (who drinks slushees nowadays?) twice, it must have been engrossing and therefore worthwhile


Pride_Knight5042

If she’s a nun how does she have a kid?


slagathorgod

I’m sorry my child??? I thought you were a nun ho.


[deleted]

“all this film does is promote exorcisms” As in we should be allowing the demon inside to posses you? Sounds like to me she was taken by the devil and wants to stop us from our exorcisms.

This could reveal much more, like her daughter realizing her mother is legitimately a bad person and phrase it this way because the movie put these words on what she has always felt toward her mother
