Online beauty contest — for nuns
p2pnet news view | P2P:- Italy’s father Antonio Rungi was planning an online beauty contest for nuns. But he’s had to suspend the project.
His blog was down when we went for a look. “Blog in costruzione,” it says at the moment.
Rungi says his pageant was, “misinterpreted as traditional beauty contest, with parades and more”.

Someone has played above even with indecent pictures. But it was expected of a kind. What that was not in ideas and in my projects and my collaborators. We intend to make a “competition” in the broad sense as it was and is to present the inner beauty and overall Sisters, which can not be limited to only appearance (if there is not to be despised) to raise awareness and sisters institutions of belonging.
Or as Nothing To Do With Arbroath sums it up »»»
An Italian priest and theologian said yesterday he is organizing an online beauty pageant for nuns to give them more visibility within the Catholic Church and to fight the stereotype that they are all old and dour.
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.
“Nuns are a bit excluded, they are a bit marginalized in ecclesiastical life,” Rungi said. “This will be an occasion to make their contribution more visible.”
