Some of these nuns have led a pretty sheltered life, divorced from reality.

and some are very active in society. Helping homeless, helping kids, public speaking. The notion that nuns stay in their little house and never go out is false.

The notion that some nuns are not very bright and are not bright enough to realize they are pregnant is apparently true.

There's no way you can be unaware of a pregnancy, at least in its later stages. When the baby starts kicking, you really can't have any doubt left.

There is a whole TV series devoted to this phenomenon

When society is large enough it's not impossible to scoop up enough of those .001% types to make a show out of it.

Sadly, I suspect .001% is several orders of magnitude small in this example. :(

The article said:
The nun belongs to the "Little Disciples of Jesus'' convent
he he... Now they have the littlest disciple.

The article said:
The BMJ reports that of the women who took part in the study, 45 (0.5%) reported at least one virgin pregnancy, "unrelated to the use of assisted reproductive technology".
They claim to have conceived without vaginal intercourse or in-vitro fertilisation (IVF).

Santorum in the wrong place, at the wrong time, can ruin your day.

When you marry an invisible man in the sky divorcing from reality is a prerequisite. You can't have both those marriages at the same time.

This. But I see the usual athiests zealots already chest thumping

I approve of the way this nun was, um, active in society.
