Don't you get sick of hearing people tell you that you're going to hell? Why would you put yourself in that environment?

There's someone on here, or at least they were on earlier with the name, "Atheist Nun." They didn't have an email so I asked the whole R & S, hoping that lady would reply.

When I was a kid I wanted to be a nun, even though I didn't believe in any religion. I just admired the essence of it all- devoting yourself to something so completely, and striving to be so good. But now I'd rather be a priestess, as I've become Pagan. ^_^ Cheers!

Thankfully, primitive laws have been left in the bronze age and atheists aren't being murdered anymore.
"They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman." (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)
I believe they hate our sins, not us... just like I hate Christianity, but not it's followers.

Ummm... I never heard of an atheist who wanted to be a nun... That would be really weird, you're right.

Depends on the people in the convent. I thought about entering a Buddhist monastary just to 'get away from it all' but I think they want you to shave your head. I'm not really sure-haven't seriously looked into it but if they do, yeah, right.

Mother Teresa was no atheist or agnostic and she had stronger faith than i have,i fear, that could get her through decades of feelings of Divine Darkness. She was a great Catholic Christian and is now a great saint and inspiration. Would that all people with struggles and depression would love as concretely as she did!

There is no athiest who would want to be a nun. Mother Theresa doubted her faith at times because of the pain and misery she saw, but she remained faithful and true to God, by her spoken words and her actions.
