A photo of a nun or Roman sister has caused hysteria on social media.
The reaction from netizens stems from the fact that the lady in the picture looked as though she was heavily pregnant.
Since staying chaste and never getting into an amorous relationship is fundamental to being a nun, many have reacted by criticising her.
Others believe it could just be a nun who was not pregnant at all but the camera angle could have told a different story.
On the other side, many also intimated that it could be she was battling with a serious health condition which resulted in her belly protruding quite visibly.
Whatever it may be, the thought of a nun or Roman sister getting pregnant and walking on the street is basically unfathomable.
