How could anyone criticize what mother Theresa did? How could anyone call her evil? Those who do are tragically misinformed. Yes, she was human and had doubts like any normal person does. How does that make her evil?

I not only agree but wish that the world would have given as much airtime to M. Theresa as they gave to Princess Diana. Mother Theresa took care of aids patients and lepers all her life and got very little recognition from the world. Princess Diana " held" a baby with aids for 5 minutes while the cameras clicked away and then gave it back to the person who did the real work and is considered to be a great humanitarian. Truly it is an unbalanced world.

the work she did with orphans and the poor was remarkable. I wish she would get the amount of recognition that she deserves. It seems that most people have their priorities mixed up when a tabloid pop princess like Diana gets endless hours of coverage on the anniversary of her death but a true world hero like Mother Teresa hardly gets a blip on the screen.

I accept as true with your relative which you gain salvation by using being born lower back, or shall I say, believing in the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior, yet i do no longer accept as true with your relative saying that a Catholic won't be able to flow to heaven, or perhaps that a Catholic isn't born lower back. i'm confident that there are various church homes that the folk going to them declare to be born lower back and or no longer. so a techniques as a guy or woman's salvation, there is not any way that all of us understand for confident if somebody else is stored or no longer. the only insurance that we've is not any count number if we are stored or no longer.

I agree she was a wonderful woman, and now that her diaries are out I think she is even more remarkable, she struggled with blind faith and doubt but preserved until the end. That's so inspirational to me. Preserve until death, no matter what. She embodied that.

There will always be remarkable women within the Church who are self sacrificing starting incredible organizations that continue on after their deaths.
She wasn't the first, and she won't be the last.
Look at what Mother Angelica did with EWTN if you haven't read her book you should, she is still alive.

Go read "The Missionary Position", and learn about how Mother Theresa conned people out of donations that were SUPPOSED to go toward building a teaching hospital, and her denial of basic health and safety measures to people in a country ravaged by AIDS, and see if you still feel the same way about Mother Theresa...

Is it truly remarkable that she took money from warlords and theifs, refused to return the money to the American people (millions she received was stolen from banks during the Savings and Loan scandals of the 1980's), and hung out with despot leaders?? That she openly refused free cataract surgery in public, but later received it in private?? THat she contributed to the spread of AIDS by telling the poor NOT to use contraception. That she claimed that she wanted to die like the people she cared for (incidentally, she never used the money she earned to pay for medications that would have prevented the suffering of many of those "patients"), but when it was her time, she was in an expensive hospital surrounded by the latest cardiac equipment??
Yeah. Really remarkable person she was. You might also like to know that her private letters are being released - and they show that even she was unconvinced of the reality of God.

Sure. But people die. That's a fact of life. It is not like she was a spring chicken. Instead of mourning the death of someone who was ancient, it is better to replace that person with good deeds of your own. Even the best of people are replaceable, if not individually, then by committee.

Grace can't lie(law) nor die(law).
Law vs Law notably does both.
Mother of ... in Revelation 17?
"Jesus" called his Mother: "Woman",
almost as if to say to Bloody Mary:
look what your silly law law has done:
it has "cursed every one": Galatians 3.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Yes, followed by Princess Diana. Two remarkable women.
