The Catholic Church Has a Ceremony for Everything -- except Gay Marriage, That Is, Because That Would be Crazy

She stood at the altar in a white gown and veil, but she was there for no earthly man. Lori Rose Cannizzaro was dedicating her virginity to Jesus.

Saturday's rare Catholic ceremony, one her own pastor didn't know existed, turned the 42-year-old into a "consecrated virgin." Fewer than 200 women in the United States and 2,000 worldwide have declared their perpetual virginity this way, according to U.S. Association of Consecrated Virgins.

"There are people who think I'm nuts," Cannizzaro said.



No, just unfuckable. That's not the same thing, not all the time, anyway.

The Church with all those ceremonies became High Church; but hit the low in practice.

Because I love men, I cannot think of too many things worse than having a ceremony to celebrate "perpetual virginity."

Because I love women, I cannot think of too many things worse than having this ceremony to celebrate "perpetual virginity" catch on.

Oh, the humanity!
