A Chicago judge ordered a greeting card company to stop selling a card that had the photograph of a Roman Catholic nun on the outside and what the nun said was a “vile and suggestive” remark inside. The company, California Dreamers, did not contest the ruling in the suit brought by Sister Candida Lund. The card showed her seated in a chair with the words, “It’s all right if you kiss me,” imprinted above her. The inside of the card said, “So long as you don’t get in the habit.” Sister Candida, chancellor of Rosary College in suburban River Forest, said the company demeaned her and embarrassed her and the college.
