There are several different orders of Baptist nuns in the United States and Canada with varying degrees of formality. Just as the more widely known Catholic nuns, some wear habits, some do not; some are cloistered, some are totally independent of a motherchurch. The only real difference in a Catholic nun and a Baptist nun is the difference in all Catholics and Baptists - a few of the beliefs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11674728.post-1126671976202457622005-09-14T14:26:00.000+10:002005-09-14T14:26:00.000+10:00Thank you for the information/correction, Christin...Thank you for the information/correction, Christine. I have heard of Protestant nuns, but I have never actually heard of Baptist nuns--perhaps they do exist. And that's pretty cool that a nun taught you how to play guitar--I bet she showed you some sweet licks!Lennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06550552156846550408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11674728.post-1126655613783459042005-09-14T09:53:00.000+10:002005-09-14T09:53:00.000+10:00It's not unheard of, Lenny.

I was never really sure what that meant, spiritually speaking, but I felt like God was answering that prayer anyway. :)<BR/><BR/>Perhaps singleness of heart has something to do with being directed towards God alone or something... yeah, that sounds good.Jason Ramagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330557979308235782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11674728.post-1126435973357713652005-09-11T20:52:00.000+10:002005-09-11T20:52:00.000+10:00ha ha, thanks, Jason. but in all actuallity my si...ha ha, thanks, Jason. but in all actuallity my singleness isn't a huge deal to me. i suppose i use the blog as an outlet for that little voice inside me that gets suppressed.ckjollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263260525667337446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11674728.post-1126419410646718012005-09-11T16:16:00.000+10:002005-09-11T16:16:00.000+10:00I've never heard of a priest who was out of work, ...I've never heard of a priest who was out of work, although there are obviously a few who should be out of work. Good thing our hope isn't in the Supreme Court of the United States, eh? :) <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I just found your blog through the Blog of Nikki Tatom and wanted to say that this one is pretty cool... I like how you incorporate pictures into almost every post. I've never thought about doing that, except for my uninspiring pictures of a cup of instant cappuccino (ref. Exhibit A: http://jasonramage.blogspot.com ). And those nuns are cute... too bad they're nuns... just kidding :) <BR/><BR/>Anyway, see ya 'round da blogosphere. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and don't worry so much about being single. If nuns can be happy for their whole lives without getting married, surely a few of the rest of us can manage it too :)Jason Ramagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330557979308235782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11674728.post-1126325246403839812005-09-10T14:07:00.000+10:002005-09-10T14:07:00.000+10:00We will be there from 1-3.
