The nuns where I went to school were of the Franciscan order but the monks/priests are different in their habits. Were they wearing the brown cassocks?

That's as incongruous as an Amish person pulling out a cell phone while driving a horse and buggy carriage - and yes, some of them do have cell phones, I believe, though they aren't supposed to do so!

True that we tend to have preconceived notions about certain people and things.

Well, at least he was not smoking. Sadly I would not know one if I saw one.

Good morning

It does seem odd to witness a lay member on their cell phone, but at the end of the day, we are all human.
