To Be or Not to Be a Nun

Reality television is not my thing at all. I tuned in to this Lifetime series, however, because of the very unusual subject matter. Five girls deciding if they wish to become nuns and devote their lives to the Church. I can't recall any other opportunity to watch something like this on my television screen.

Overall the subject matter was quite interesting and Lifetime handled it well. It seems there could have been a couple more episodes to this very limited series in order to go deeper into the spiritual aspects of the girls' search and decision process. More screen time for the wisdom dished out by the Mothers Superior would also have been good.

The big disappointment was the girls themselves. The level of immaturity and inappropriate behavior, among religious individuals who feel a calling from God, was a shocker to me. It made me reflect on this generation of adult children who haven't a clue about appropriate social discourse and respectful interactions.
