Mother Teresa helped others die. Your faith has helped you to fail without you feeling any responsiblity. I'd rather gather some steam and learn from my mistakes. How many hospitals and treatment centers for the prevention of disease did Mother Teresa fund? How many more lives will Bill Gates save from his funded treatment programs. We will never hear of a Saint Gates!

Puh-LEEEZE, earplug. That was totally uncalled for. You don't have a clue what that person endured or why, or what they did or didn't do to help themselves.

As for Mother Theresa, she dealt with the realities of situations that people live in (and die in) in Calcutta. Should they be ignored until their diseases are cured and poverty is abolished?

Bill Gates' good deeds are a credit to him. Thank God for his generosity.

Peace, dude. Take a chill pill.

Bill Gates funds a lot of death, too. He's big on population control. He gives money to prevent the very thing that made his prosperity possible.

To quote from the article: "Beatification and canonization are recognitions not of a person's life work -- which is obviously praiseworthy in Mother Teresa's case -- but of holiness."

Pretty ugly post to someone generous enough to share the realities of their life on this thread.

Do you always take a cheap-shot at someone first thing in the morning?

You don't know anything about me! Yet, you feel the need to try and cheapen both my faith and myself with your truly ignorant comments.
You could have just as easily framed your response as a question for disscussion such as "Do you think Bill Gates funding of hospitals compares with Mother Teresa's works?"...but you didn't. So I'm led to the conclusion that your not here for either disscussion or to lend moral support to any other human being...but, just to try to start arguments. You do realize your not very good at it...don't you?
