In UK, women want to be nuns to beat recession
More and more number of women are opting to become nuns in wake of recession. Figures are up by 66% on last year as women of all ages are ready to give up sex, drink, shopping and worrying about making ends meet to spend their days in silence, praying for hours on end.
"The recession makes people question, 'What is really important in my life?" the Mirror quoted Sister Gemma Simmonds, one of 18 nuns as saying.

But are more men becoming priests?
vivme, the comment amended accordingly above!
Out of this Thread now let you guys have a laugh at Nuns on the Runs..:)
Interesting News in the Times of India, don't they have their own News to print than the News from the Uk..:)
The way I see it, nothing derogatory was written about the UK in the news piece.
That being said, retaliating isn't necessarily going to close the issue.
vivme I say the same.
What is the intention of the OP to post some news about the UK which was posted in TOI. So I guess that the link to India!
Subject closed as looks like only party has the right to talk about the other country without looking at ones own short failings.
UK, the comment about India was not warranted especially since the OP did not have anything to do with India.
It is indeed appalling how people from the western world keep looking for opportunities to project India in bad light based on practices that were common in certain parts of the country decades ago.
No brain is requried to understand UK situation today , Unemployment , Beggars , Street riotings , Divorce , And offcourse all semi intelligents lined up to come in Qatar and ME for few pounds , But rest assure more and more Indians brains like TATA will takeover Brit business , UK will not collapse completely .
Wireless brain.. I guess your name says it all..
Prism thanks for the personal assumptions about me. UK is my home land the land of my birth so stop assuming if you don't know me.
Now I am commenting on Hard times and what one does in their prospective country. Yes a few women in the UK are taking up the to be Nuns, so are many people in India committing suicide due to hard times.
The comment is about hard times and not after death!
So more and more UK women will wear head scarf ... Good
DOG will be good options for UK guys .. Now they are very near to to stop thinking that they are best in the world .. Ha Ha Ha
UK...thanks, that was very informative. Even as an Indian I didn’t know that. Hope your home country (not the country of which u hold the passport) is doing good when it comes to women and they are safe, sound and achieving great heights in education and their professional life thereafter.
BTW how is 'after death' and 'recession' related... care to explain the relation, I am a bit slow today.
@ bilber...apology accepted on behalf of all Indian men..:)
wow up from 24 to 40 so its a boom in a population of 64 million..:) Love the source..ROFL
bilber now can u edit your previous comment too ?
prism..sorry..it's UK. i didn't sleep for the last two days and my eyes are starting to get blurry...my apology to all Indian men...
bilber...throw that whatever you are smoking...clear your eyes, throw some water on your face if rubbing your eyes doesnt help... good, now sit down and read the first line again...'In UK women want to be nuns to beat recession'...now where did you see Indian men and women there.
66% up i.e. 40 from 24 ....and it is such a big change that it can be stated as 'more and more women'!!!
it is true?.. they are opting to give up sex and shopping?...uh..oh!!!....what is happening with Indian men?...they can't even make Indian women happy anymore..
