I smell B.S. This means that there are roughly 1900 nuns in the entire U.S.A. Roughly 25 of those 1900 would be conservative nuns in the Greensburg, PA diocese. I know this because I was an assigned poll watcher in the precinct where their convent was located and had them on my strike list as friendly voters. They all showed up to vote, by the way, in three groups.
The Greensburg diocese covers Westmoreland County with a total population of roughly 380,000, or about 0.12% of the U.S. total. Granted, we have a concentration of Catholics of roughly 2.5 times the national total, so lets say we have 0.3% of the nuns in the single precinct.
Multiply that by the 1900 total said to be in the whole United States and this means we should have a maximum of 6 rather than 25. Further, since our nuns are clearly conservative and not part of this libtard umbrella group, it should be closer to 20% of the 6.
Each member of the "umbrella group" is a religious community with few/several/many nuns. The 1500 number is not the number of nuns, but rather the number of religious communities that are part of the LCWR.
I thought so too. here are some facts.
“In the 2008 US Catholic demographic census there were found to be 59,208 religious sisters serving in the USA. This is a stark contrast to a mere 40 years ago when there were over 175,000 religious”
