Miss Sister 2008 - Beauty Contest for Nuns
Is it just me or does this seem somewhat weird and strange - Italian Priest Organizes Beauty Contest for Nuns… A bit like an oxymoron, if you must.
The Miss Sister 2008 contest will start in September on a blog run by the Rev. Antonio Rungi and will give nuns from around the world a chance to showcase their work and their image.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not implying that nuns are not pretty or anything like that. No, no, no.
Hear me out, my point is lurking somewhere in this explanation. Nuns are supposed to be devoted to god, spirituality and doing good for humanity, etc. etc. so they personify the fact that everyone should look at inner beauty because of the good they do and other such feel-good explanations.
So doesn’t it defeat that idea if there is a beauty contest? Does it matter what you look like, […]
