Uhhhhh . . . what book are we talking about?
The book that has half the forum condemning Mother Teresa to hell for losing her faith: "Come Be My Light". How much of all of this is based on Christopher Hitchen's "analysis" and cherry picked quotes and how much is based on having actually read the book?
From all accounts Mother Teresa wrote thousands of letters, many of which were destroyed at her request. Some letters have survived and some of those were reproduced in the book and then Christopher Hitchens (who has a serious bee in his bonnet about her) went to town on them.
Reading the reviews at Amazon gives a dramatically different spin on the contents and so it's in my cart now... along with several books written by Cardinal Ratzinger/Pope Benedict, thanks mainly to people who appear to be misrepresenting what they contain.
So the question remains... is Mother Teresa being condemned to hell based on excerpts? Is that wise? Should we not say "I haven't read the book, I can't judge based on quotes selected by an intoxicated atheist."
