Sure they *respect* a nun. But a patient in counseling suspends their own will and judgment to allow for correction and uncomfortable introspection, saying, “this doesn’t feel right, but I need help,” while at the same time yielding an intimacy and vulnerability emotionally associated otherwise with sexuality. I suppose somewhat similar circumstances may apply to one’s confessor... but a nun? Nah, not buying it.
Well, I disagree and apparently so did the school.
