I believe cunts should accept their lot.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

As is often the case, I have found that RationalWiki already features a good approximation of my opinion on the matter:
"Mother Teresa (real name: Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu), was an Albanian nun who, depending on your level of cynicism, is one of the following:
The most recent example of a saintly person,
The greatest con artist, sham charity embezzler, and sadist the world has seen in the last 50 years, or
A deeply misguided person who put the perceived spiritual needs of those she served over their real, tangible physical needs, or
A very real, very human combination of some or all of the above. "
How will we know, when the morning comes, we are still human? - 2D
Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.

I was always told that she was a sweet person that helped a lot of people.Maybe she had a twisted view of the world and a lot of crazy religious views but she did help people right?I mean,that has to count for something..
Well no, she raised millions of pounds, donated to help the needy but the plight of the people in her care did not improve, and this in a land where everything was cheap.
What she did with the money was open more and more nunneries to produce catholic indian girls.

Quote:A book of letters written by Mother Teresa of Calcutta reveals for the first time that she was deeply tormented about her faith and suffered periods of doubt about God.
"Jesus has a very special love for you. As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great that I look and do not see, listen and do not hear," she wrote the Rev. Michael van der Peet in September 1979.
But, she died before she could officially recant so fuck her.
That is why places like this are so important. Maybe a young Mother Teresa would have turned away from religion early in her life and done some real good in her life if she knew that atheism wasn't evil like many Christians are taught

Well, some yes. But most of the donations to her charity organizations aren't spent on caring for the ill. The conditions in her houses are reported to be bad, and she was more invested in getting more nuns than helping the poor.

I just feel bad.Really really bad.
I know cunts and Mother Theresa is definitely not one of them.
She did lots of nice things and i will forever respect her for that!
Thank you,TRJF.
From what I have read, it appears she did not provide proper pain medicine because she thought suffering was holy.

Quote:A new study by Canadian academics says Mother Teresa was a product of hype who housed the poor and sick in shoddy conditions, despite her access to a fortune.
The Times of India, reporting on the controversial essay, wrote that the authors asserted Mother Teresa saw beauty in the downtrodden's suffering and was far more willing to pray for them than provide practical medical care. Meanwhile, researchers say, the Vatican engaged in a PR ploy as it threw aside concerns about her suspicious financial dealings and contacts to forgo the five-year waiting period to beatify her.
One of the researchers, Serge Larivee of the University of Montreal's department of psychoeducation, told the school's website, “Given the parsimonious management of Mother Teresa's works, one may ask where the millions of dollars for the poorest of the poor have gone?”

It was for me also. Mother Teresa had been a hero of my childhood so it hurt to see that she didn't just have human faults but might have hurt a lot of people.

It is easy to read up on what an evil person Mother Teresa was. Since Hitchens was brought up, I will include a link relevant to him first:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Missionary_Position
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_p...arest.html
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worl...-no-saint/
http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/iv-d...21363.html
Basically, anyone who likes Mother Teresa has either been conned by good PR and has false beliefs about her, or is an immoral bastard for approving of the things she has done. Read the articles at the links for some details on this.

Yes. She was a sadistic bitch.
