Whoa! Ok, I don't know if this is just a weird coincidence or the result of having similar thought process, but I read this article - among others on similar note - within the last half an hour.
My search for it was triggered by MysticKnight's post about pride and sin - specifically how the Christian doctrine declares everyone to be bad and therefore undeserving of any self-esteem or pride - and that reminded me of an article I had previously read about how Mother Teresa (someone who could be called a True Christian ) had a great deal of self-hatred parading as humility. I tried looking for that and found other articles of similar vein - such as one posted here. I thought about bringing it into the other thread or starting a new one, but it seems you beat me to it.
I don't know, but it just seems like an interesting coincidence.
