So, you say you’re tired of the orthodox attitude of EWTN’s Mother Angelica and are looking for a nun with a progressive attitude? Look no further than PWTN (Progressive Word Television Network) and its Earth-Mother Sr. Joan Chittister, O.S.B. From "The Road from Rome" to "Heterodox Answers Live," the Curt Jester has created the television network of choice for Catholics whose viewpoint tilts to the left.
Kinda looks like Robin Williams in drag. Reminds me of Mrs. Doubtfire.
You know, given the recent meetings of Pope Benedict with Hans Kueng and Oriana Fallaci, it would not surprise me if next week we read that Pope Benedict had invited Sr. Chittister to lunch at the Vatican (but not to talk about ordination of women, or other matters on which they agree to disagree).
Having spent wonderful personal time with Sr. Chittister (but not especially caring for ALL of her writing or opinions), I can only say that she is a Catholic woman worthy of more respect than this parody, even if it is fun.
I’ve heard that Himmler was a very personable chap, too.
Most kooks on a grand scale tend to be quite personable.
Dang, she doesn’t even look like a woman. She reminds me of Martin Sheen.
She reminds me of Michael Palin.
PWTN? More like RWTN(Regressive Word Television Network). Besides, I’m not sure that you would want that title for a TV network(PWTN is one letter removed from PWN)!
Um…what does PWN stand for?
A general typo for “own” that has been adopted into the net-geek lexicon?
It’s not a “typo” per se, but an internet phenomenon known as “leet speak”, or “1337” speak. It involves a form of shorthand whereby letters are substitued for numbers or symbols. It’s the pig latin of the hacker world.
