Wow! All these comments on Mother Theresa's nature are shocking! I was brought up Anglican, but don't follow any religion so I'm quite ignorant of much to do with it.
I'd love to read an article about the life of Mother Theresa and all the controversy surrounding her!
I really think the story about St Teresa of Calcutta deserves a bit more recognition than simply "Monday's news in 5 minutes". Here was a woman who devoted her life to God and the world's poorest. The process of canonisation is actually not a "declaration" by the Catholic Church of the person's status in the Church but a recognition that, through testing of evidence, the person, having died, is now with God as they have interceded for people in their needs. There is no claim the she healed anybody, but that through her intercession, God worked miracles that cannot be scientifically explained. Despite criticisms that the Catholic Church receives about its patriarchal hierarchy, it recognises that St Mary is the Queen of Heaven, and gives due recognition to women for their works of love. St Teresa's canonisation is a cause that should be celebrated by everyone as such sacrificial love is what the world desperately needs. Please don't hide the story of this great woman at the bottom of your pulp news.
You paint a very good picture of someone who deliberately kept people poor and in poor conditions because she believed suffering was a "gift from God". Even the supposed "miracle" performed was just a hoax, with the cyst in the woman concerned (she said it was cancer, her doctors disagreed) being cured by conventional medicine.
Well said.
Wrong religion I guess.
The story has nothing to do with Muslims and you still managed to bring it up so you could have a go at this website for running positive stories about Muslims. A group of people who receive far more negative press than other religions who have just as many issues. I think it's odd that you do so so often.
