A Vatican magazine has denounced how nuns are often treated like indentured servants by cardinals and bishops, for whom they cook and clean for next to no pay. The March edition of Women Church World, the monthly women's magazine of the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano, hit newsstands Thursday. - Lucetta Scaraffia, editor of Women Church World"Until now, no one has had the courage to denounce these things," the magazine's editor, Lucetta Scaraffia, told The Associated Press. Other recent issues have explored the symbolic power of women's bodies and "rape as torture." Neither Scaraffia nor the eight-member editorial staff of Women Church World is paid.
