Just do us a favor. Go to your local public library and get Mother Teresa's book 'Mother Teresa: In My Own Words' by Mother Teresa. Read it.

I will never again read another thing by Christopher Hitchens! It's okay to read it. You should read everything you can. But it is the analysis of the ideas that matter.
Question everything. Reported facts may not be facts at all. And opinions, while often finely crafted, are often worthless.
About ninety percent of everything we read is spin. Just ask yourself who is doing the spinning and why.

Read it or don't read it, but with anything you read, summon the wisdom to read it critically.

LauraleeBraswell, your thoughts move at the speed of light. You have that going for you!
Do a google search of "New Advent" & "incorruptibility." There are about 68 articles. I'm going to start reading them, too...race ya'!

Nothing wrong with occasionally perusing Hitchens.
I would not, however, assume that he was sober when writing whatever it is you are reading.
His fixation on Mother Theresa is frankly bizarre, to the point of suggesting some kind of relatively mild mental illness.
