I guess a good comparison regarding religious takes on suffering is the Jehova's Witness approach to blood transfusion. Lots of advanced directives and living wills around respecting their wish not to have a blood transfusion. Also lots of instances of when push comes to shove, having them anyway. A cousin of mine is still here today because my Aunty and Uncle relented and convinced her to have it. Interestingly, had she been 6 months younger, the hospital would have been able to ignore their wishes and work in the interest of the child, as this was an emergency.

Mother Teresa was a nun, but I doubt all nuns are or were in her image. The survey asks what the catholic image should be?

Well?
