I know I haven't posted here in a while, but this article got my attention. What determination this author has......What agility.......to turn Mother Teresa into a sincere, but misguided missionary.

This article contains thoughts such as the following:

Since it began in 1952, nearly 85,000 people have found shelter and comfort here. And 35,000 of them left this place dead.

For someone so practical it is surprising that she never questioned the Catholic dogma.

The problem, some say, was how Mother Teresa viewed the inmates. For her, everyone at Nirmal Hriday was the sick, dying or abandoned Christ. Every sore that is cleaned and every hand that is held is in fact, his.

Her critics say she saw suffering as necessary to the salvation of the soul. The goal was not to put an end to the suffering but to help the suffer find joy in it.

"If people are sick on the streets, what they need is a hospital, they don't need a group of nuns praying for them or keeping them on a bad diet," says journalist and co-producer, Hell's Angel, Tariq Ali.

Mother Teresa's critics have often questioned the source of her funding. Among them - the right-wing dictator of Haiti, Jean-Claude Duvalier, Charles Keating, who stole $252 million in the 80s Saving and Loan scandal, and British publisher Robert Maxwell, who embezzled ?450 million from his employees' pension funds.
