11. I am eternally grateful for the nuns

I gave up religion when I was about 18, but I went to Catholic school through the 7th grade in South Carolina in the late 50s early 60s. To prepare for the inevitable desegregation of the schools, they transferred nuns, so all of the nuns at my school were northern liberals. I really think that had a lot to do with me repudiating the racism all of us grew up with and having a world view of looking out for your brother. Some of them were a bit nasty, but at least they preached peace, love and harmony.
