Mother Teresa Sainthood

Just read M Teresa has been canonized.

Is this sainthood really necessary in the modern age?

She has her critics.

I am an RC and have been to church on the odd occasion but have never taken it seriously.

Look at how my life turned out. Fast cars, money and other things. Thank the one above for being born out west!

Now if I was born in a developing country and found myself crook in a dodgy hospital with no sanitation or medicine and told that my illness was God's gift and to just suck it up.....I'd be pleading to be transferred to M Teresa's treating hospital.....the one that gave her a pacemaker and kept her going for over 20 years lol.

 

@datto - you're a saint (s supporter)

 

Rabbitohs actually.....

 

Mortal enemies

 

They smashed the doggies!

 

Must be the bunnies who protect the holy grail.

 

yes absolutely.....mum will be happy

 

Hang on, Mother Teresa was born in 1910 and you're 25. It's not possible.

 

@datto @MTR - immaculate misconception?

 

'the greatest poverty is being unloved, unwanted and uncared for'."
Brought me to tears.. been there done that...
For me, it was when you find out who your friends are.

 

In some countries with the cruel twist of genetics and under what cast you are born people like this now powerfull "LADY" is all they have,and some non glamorous rule breakers become prophesied heroes..from a former red head alter boy

 

And I'm not one of those critics.

I think she deserves a sainthood, Datto. Even Google doesnt know about how she excelled at performing burnouts in a Torana in the church carpark burnout competition, and then unselfishly gave the award to a disadvantaged local teenager who's (unregistered and uninsured) car had recently been repossessed by a fascist finance company...

 

God bless her soul.

Well here's an interesting fact..... Saint Teresa's father was a property investor

 

He did manage to get a licence by Recognized Prior Learning having knocked off several cars as a twelve year old and taken them for joy rides.

 

At least he wasn't an agent ie. Sold his soul to the devil.

 

She would have never attained Sainthood otherwise.

 

In a world full of apathy and disconnection, a person who shows compassion for other human beings deserves to be recognised.

I have no idea about the political and religious bs you guys are talking about - call it what you want. She was a good person. That is all.

 

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.

They were tough times that she worked in. Poverty stricken.

That's probably why the syringes had to be reused from patient to patient according to her critics.

Looks like the church couldn't afford the cost of new ones. Maybe the plate should have been passed one more time at least.
