"I'm quoting Mother Teresa who was presented here as a model of Christian perfection."

Perfection only exists in God who is infinitely perfect. Mother Teresa is to be appreciated, emulated, loved and venerated. She will be recognized by the Church as a role model. Perhaps like St. Jude, Mother Teresa will be named a Patron Saint of lost causes and despair.

That is pathetic, but points to the vapidity of Rome's beliefs.

Mother Teresa did not believe in Jesus Christ, but she is a "role model" for Roman Catholics.

Lost cause, indeed.

I think it’s likely that the reason Hitchens and others target her for derision is because she has and does inspire so many.
