Or the secret baptisms of Muslims and Hindus? Read the book and you might not find the saint you think she was.
Ron, whee did you get the idea of secret baptisms of Muslims and Hindus? Or that she kept 50 million away from the poor? Go and live in a house of the Mother Theresa sisters and see for yourself the work they do for a week or a month; and then you will know if they are baptising anybody. Don’t be obtuse by reading a book by a man who was totally biased against her and wrote a book to justify his hate; read as many books on her as you can; and talk to people like Naveen who lived in close association with her and knew her from close quarters. There are thousands of other volunteers who have worked with her. Talk to them and then make a judgement for yourself. Don’t be like an unintelligent man who has his conclusions already but just does not know how to arrive at them. Peace!
We have a photograph of my wife checking Mother Teresa’s eyes; her sisters were always honoured guests at father in law’s eye clinic on Russell Street, Calcutta.
