Flying Nun

     A novice ran up to tell St. Thomas Aquinas about a nun who could levitate. This supernatural event was attracting large crowds, and St. Thomas went to the chapel to investigate. When he looked up, he saw the nun in mid-air.

                  "Look, Father, isn’t it amazing! What do you think?"
                  Thomas answered, "I didn’t know nuns wore such big boots."
Thomas did not deny or was very impressed with the flying nun. Thomas knew that a supernatural event did not mean holiness. Thomas only knew that the supernatural are events which man cannot understand. Like Thomas, we should treat supernatural events with caution because all we know is that the supernatural cannot be explained.
