Subject: RE: BS: Pope Francis makes Oscar Romero a saint
It's pretty difficult to exaggerate Mother Teresa's wrongdoings. She usurped tens of millions of dollars, possibly as much as a hundred million, that donors thought were going to be used for helping the sick and the poor. Instead, she used the money to expand her network of convents, and the sick and dying she was supposed to be helping, and who the world thought she was helping, were left to rot and slowly die on filthy mattresses without qualified medical staff in dreadful, insanitary conditions. She told the poor to celebrate their poverty and not to fight it. She told an audience of young women that abortion was the greatest threat to world peace, and she was a friend of Papa Doc and shed tears at the grave of Ceausescu. Enjoy her sainthood, Joe. If I get to the pearly gates and I see her in there, I'm not going in.
