Nuns are not only Christians

Nuns are not only Christians
think its a miconception... mostly due to Catholic Christian tradition. I mean sure its mostly famous for it. But it seems other religious traditions also has its set of nuns.

But it just means as a whole to live most likely in piety and in poverty, i can assume to be devote to whatever cause you are into.

Either case here is a wiki on it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nun
"A nun is a member of a religious community of women, typically living under vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience in the enclosure of a monastery.[1] Communities of nuns exist in numerous religious traditions, including Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Jainism, and Taoism. "

For example. Rich people are rich, poor people are poor. Atheists does seem ironically religious irreligious people in that case of having some common cases of their own culture of spite called marxism which is form of statheist belief system, and religious try with religious authority figures.

Its kind of funny isnt it : )

Hi Indir.

It's an interesting subject! Nuns have played an important role in Buddhist life here in Japan. Here's an article about one who is particularly famous now. Lots of people consider her to be very wise.

I wonder what you mean about Marxism. Probably I'm not a full-scale Marxist, but old Karl's analysis seems important to me. And I have a lot of sympathy for the ideals -- especially now that working people are losing out so severely in the current economic situation. 

I'm very skeptical about the idea that Marxism is a "culture of spite." What would you say to persuade me of that?

Edit: wow, that was a fast ban. I guess I'll never know the answer.

Prevailing wisdom among these recidivists seems to be that, as long as they wear the Groucho nose and glasses, they'll never get found out.
