When donations are solicited for helping the poor, and are not used for that purpose, that's what we call fraud. That's just as true whether the funds are used for gambling sprees or just sit around in a bank. Mother Theresa took money under false pretenses, pure and simple.

You have not a shred of evidence that these funds were not used to help the poor.

Mother teresa's been dead for years - nobody's discovered her Maserati collection yet. No word about any private islands or all-night cocaine binges either.

The woman was a saint, you'll never do as much for the poor, neglected and suffering in your life as she did in one week.

Why didn't mother T give the money back or send it on to someone who would give to the poor(Old Nick made her keep it and of course Bush)...

Oh yeah, what has happened to all the money, now that the old scammer is gone????

Sure is a lot of simple minded cool aid drinkers, Muzzies and Christians alike, out there paying big money for their "ticket" on the "Glory Train"loaded with luscious virgins...
Ole Jimmie Jones would be proud of Mother T...
BEWARE OF DO GOODERS!!!!

I agree about misuse of fraud. I meant that if the info about her being a bit goofy is true, someone saying this needn't be attacked. It doesn't spoil her good work, so why get upset? The comment was more aimed at the posters taking great offense on this thread.

Can anyone refute the facts that are alleged?

Which facts, that they lived with and as the poor? That was widely known, was openly advertised as part of the Order, and it was intentional. If this woman was surprised by that she is a fool.

If you mean the claims that the money disappeared, or whatever it was this woman insinuated, she provides no “facts” to support that insinuation.

All she can say is that she processed lots of checks. For an order as large and as well known as this, that is hardly surprising, nor is it evidence of malfeasance. She also notes that Mother Theresa wasn’t out shaking folks down for that money. It costs a lot of money to treat aids patients and others, and I see little evidence the money wasn’t spent, or is unaccounted for. That they don’t want to open their books to you is hardly a basis for you to claim there are problems. To the extent you think otherwise, I’ll look forward to stopping by and examining your professional books.

When donations are solicited for helping the poor, and are not used for that purpose, that's what we call fraud.

Do you have some evidence that this happened?

Mother Theresa took money under false pretenses, pure and simple.

Again, your evidence is?
