Nun Gives Birth in Italy, Names Baby Francis |
2014-01-18 |
[An Nahar] A Salvadorean nun who said she had no idea she was pregnant gave birth in Italia this week after she felt stomach cramps in her convent and was rushed to hospital, Italian media reported on Friday. The 31-year-old mother and her baby boy, who weighs 3.5 kilograms (nine pounds), are doing well and other new mothers in Rieti hospital have begun collecting clothes and donations for her, the reports said. "I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a stomach pain," the nun was quoted as saying at the hospital, the Italian news agency ANSA reported. La Repubblica said she gave birth on Wednesday. ANSA said the nun had named her baby La Belle Francesco (Francis) -- also the pope's chosen title and one of the most popular names in Italia, where St Francis of Assisi is the much-loved national patron saint. The hospital could not be reached for comment. The nun belongs to the "Little Disciples of Jesus" convent in Campomoro near Rieti, which manages an old people's home and reports said she would keep the baby. Her fellow nuns were quoted saying they were "very surprised". |

#3 Her fellow nuns were quoted saying they were "very surprised". I'll bet they were, now claim "No Sex", Name the baby "Jesus" And claim Divinity. There ARE a number of "Spontaneous Virgin Births" yearly, catch is, there always female,(No male DNA). So, "Who's the daddy" Ain't God. |

#2 I really wish there was a picture of the Nun. I do not know if it is the petite, light brown skinned with big brown eyes or the Pete Rose in a habit looking Nun.
