" What did Gandhi do?"

He denied medicine to his WIFE when she was ill, that he was all too happy to take when HE was ill!

Ya... real "unselfish service to all those in need"..... *rollseyes*

"as one of many examples, that when Gandhi's wife lay dying of
pneumonia and British doctors insisted that a shot of penicillin would save her, Gandhi refused to have this alien medicine injected in her body and simply let her die. (It must be noted that when Gandhi contracted malaria shortly afterward he accepted for himself the alien medicine quinine, and that when he had appendicitis he allowed British doctors to perform on him the alien outrage of an appendectomy."

"Gandhi's monstrous behavior to his own family is notorious. He denied his sons education--to which he was bitterly hostile. His wife remained illiterate."

"He disowned his oldest son, Harilal, for wishing to marry. He banished his second son for giving his struggling older brother a small sum of money."

Get yourself a copy of Penn & Tellers "Bullsh!t", the episode titled "Holier Than Thou" and listen to some truth about Mother Teresa, if you can pull yourself away from the racket of whack jobs and fuzzy thinkers that is so-called 'holiness'.....
