Much Ado About Nuns

  Much ado about nuns.


The ladies have a point to make to the 'big man' in the Vatican seat, so they speak and make their hubbub known.  My question however is why is the institution set up that there is a singular boss man of the Catholic church?

For me... 'boss man' is only God... the 'being' that is in some other realm not feeling the sun's rays, the water's waves, nor the brushing bushes.  He is the only one whom we have to be accountable to and whom we should get our answers from about how to live.  The idea that there is some other governing/ruling body over a whole belief that they can CHANGE the rules of is not Godly at all.  In fact, God is eternal, His rules are eternal, His plan is eternal (and unchanging), and we mere mortals are just playing make-believe if we think we have any say in any of the matters.

We don't control squat of what happens to ourselves.  We wake up today with the intention to run a marathon, get ready, set, go out the door and fall and break our neck on the way down the stairs to the car.  Instant paraplegic and life is never the same.  No Pope can do anything to stop that from happening.  Its only God who can make things happen or not, so why are the nuns asking for anything from a guy at the Vatican?  

If anyone wants change... nuns, CEOs, teachers, lawyers, beggars... they need only do one thing.  Pray to God about it and use the guidance that He showed you as 'the way' to improve the situation... THEN act once you are educated about it all.  

The nuns in this situation are reacting to what actions the church hierarchy is taking that they believe is going against the church doctrine, but they should ask themselves if they are in the right belief system if the structure even HAS a hierarchy rather than being structured as a direct association between themselves and God. (without the Bishops, Cardinals, and 'de Popa')

"Did not he who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?" Job 31:15
