I hear ya. When I get real low and think of my husband dying the idea of joining a secluded sisterhood of community service sounds great. But I don't want to support the only option I know of.

i mean...you could be buddhist? hell, make up your own tiny sect of something.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-11 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm fairly certain that Buddhism has major issues with abuse as well, unfortunately

DA

And that doesn't even include their complicity in the Myanmar atrocities.

I mean... what's stopping you at the moment from being celibate, quiet and volunteering for whatever charitable cause you want?

(Anonymous) 2023-08-11 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Not OP but presumably the lack of a community to share in those things with?

(Anonymous) 2023-08-11 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Volunteering isn't a solo thing, though. It's possible (and in fact, very likely) that if there's a particular cause OP feels a connection with, volunteering at it will introduce them to many other like-minded people.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-12 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
Not OP, but from experience, when you are quiet people say things like "Why are you so quiet? What's wrong with you?". I assume that if I were a nun people would just accept it. Same with the other two things, people wouldn't look for an explanation or try to give you an argument about how you spend your time.

You could always just train as a midwife anyway. Nunification is not required.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-11 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like you need to found a coven. You could easily include contemplation, good works, and celibacy in the rules. As a middle aged women I think you had better be prepared for a lot of muddle aged applicants

AYRT -- I have no idea what you're talking about, but whatever blows your hair back

(Anonymous) 2023-08-12 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Man, that is an indictment of the state of the MCU and effectiveness of its hyperactive right now.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-13 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
NAYRT

I don't know what they're trying to say, either.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-13 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
DA

But I love this comment and it sounds like a really good idea.

I went to a Franciscan university. I took a theology course from a friar who opened with "I'm an atheist".

Turns out the 'calling' doesn't actually have much to do with belief? If you can handle the rituals as basically payment for the rest of it, go right ahead.

You don't need an excuse to be celibate - just do it!
(Or, actually, just don't do it. :D)

I like the community of women, helping women, for women. Fuck the pastors and other males that nuns had to kow-tow to. And, sorry, but fuck religion in general.

I had not! That is very cool.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-12 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly, sometimes I wish I was a nun. But I would be like Sister George Michael from Derry Girls. I just want free housing, a guaranteed job, and to not give shitall about anything.
