There is a huge amount of controversy on Mother Theresa over whether she did what she said, or in some cases exacerbated the problems of Calcutta to make her appear to be accomplishing things that were not being done.

No surprise about controversy of a woman who lived her faith to the max...and in doing so highlighted the vacuousness and hypocrisy of a world of progressive secularists.

IIRC she had staff secretly baptize dieing people regardless of their chosen religion, she supported some indian politician who removed civil liberties from the people saying that "they were happier" or somthing like that and some people had issues with the medical care at one of her facilities.

I'm not Catholic but isn't it "Mother Teresa"
Only ask because I tease my bride about being Mother Theresa, spelled differently.

^Well that was an eye-opener.

Let me get this straight...a woman who dedicated her life to Jesus by serving the poorest of the poor and spreading that dedication worldwide thru priests, sisters, and lay persons ...is "not a Christian"...What does one need to do to be appreciated by you?
As for secretly baptizing the dying...sounds like charges by Hindis who initially despised her efforts...yet after detailed scrutiny by Indian authorities she was embraced by local and national leaders... who celebrated her canonization.
Read her writings. Listen to her speeches...you can judge for yourself her authenticity...and throw off the anti-Catholic bias permeating this society.

Actually the charge comes from Susan Shields, a former member of the Missionaries of Charity. As for not being a Christian, some of the people here believe that Catholics are not real Christians.

Oh dear, that is unfortunate, but also not terribly surprising. Hopefully she heard the Gospel before the end and believed.
