A CONVENT in southern Italy is being shut down after a quarrel among its last three remaining nuns ended in blows.
Sisters Annamaria and Gianbattista, reportedly upset about their mother superior's authoritarian ways, scratched her in the face and threw her to the ground at Santa Clara convent near Bari in an incident in July that was kept quiet until now.
Archbishop Giovanni Battista Pichierri tried to reconcile the nuns but finally decided in late August that they had "clearly lost their religious vocation'' and asked the Vatican for permission to close the convent.
Sisters Annamaria and Gianbattista moved to another convent, but Sister Liliana barricaded herself inside, refusing to leave, the reports said.
She suspected Bishop Battista Pichierri of planning to cede the convent to another community.
Liliana had been at the convent since its founding in 1963.

^^^ hahah! I was just thinking the exact same thing. Nun fights would easily out sell hobo fights. :D

Curious. Considering that the convent was closed a month later, one could say that the scrapping nuns wasted their time and energy.

If they were wearing rubber habits they may sell out even faster!

I'm having very very bad thoughts about this. I'm sure it looked different in real life but my video in my head rules.
