Shocking.So what did she use the monies for? Probably remitted them to her cult.


It won't surprise us though , if Pope and Hindu Priest end up in the same place.

Here is an excerpt from her confessions:

"... there is such terrible darkness within me, as if everything was dead."

@ola.....
She try sha.....
Feeling empty is a normal feeling we all struggle with becos we are humans and always need to lean on God just like Jesus did too.....
I dnt rili have any problem with theresa sha....

but I feel catholics as a group can make some adjustments to some of there traditions and beliefs if d bible outrightly refutes them...
Making continous adjustments when we notice a doctrine we hold on to isn't right doesn't show weakness,it shows we love d scriptures and wanna live up to its standard....

Because all we have now is d bible which is a product of Gods spirit......
The apostles who had these truths 1st hand from Jesus aint no more....
So we today need to always b ready to make serious adjustments to meet up bible standards both as individuals and as a group.......

I did a research about her on the net, the evidence pointed to negative, except the submission of those who criticized her were false, then am afraid everything about her was a media hype.

Here is a quote from the book; "Mother Teresa Touched other faiths" promoting universalism:

"Of cause I convert. I convert you to be a better Hindu or a better Muslim or a better Protestant. Once you've found God, its up to you to decide how to worship him"

Which clearly goes against the teaching of Scripture in Isaiah 46:5-6

Hope you guys don't mind quoting the total amount of money she received as a ratio of the no of hospices she ran worldwide that way we will begin to analyse it to find out how she used the money.

Here is a documentary revealing the answers as to how much she received and how she used it.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30XdrOLT7J4

A young girl holds out her hand -- horribly scarred when a senior nun applied a red hot knife as a punishment for misbehavior. Allegations of child abuse and neglect are surfacing along with serious questions about the administration of the charity's vast pool of donated money.

A volunteer claims she witnessed mistreatment: "I've seen smacking... yanking around babies by their arms, letting their heads wobble." In a rare interview Mother Teresa's successor, Sister Nirmala, defends the mission but says she has no idea how much money it has "No-body knows -- it's God's maths". Critics argue that funds go to religious campaigns rather than poverty relief. Meanwhile, one of Mother Teresa's many supporters defends her legacy: "She is in the hearts of most people a saint..."

As "Sister Nirmala" said: "Nobody knows . . . it's God's maths".

Since no one knows how much she received why are there making a fuss about it

We might as well sweep it under the carpet since there is no accountability, no?

Na wa for you o Mr. Olaadegun and company. You take your attack of everybody outside your small religious clique to a while new level.

So what exactly are you accusing mother teresa of? Embezzlement? Fraud? Deceit?

So what about your own church or denominations, what is done with the tithes, donations and offerings you people receive every Sunday( it is almost a daily affair now)? How many orphanages, schools, charities do you run?

I have not seen you attack any of the flamboyant nigerian GOs who use donations from members and others to buy jets, armored cars and live luxurious lifestyles and you are here attacking a person who died with no property to her name or inheritance to her family.

Your hypocrisy is blinding.

That's exactly what am saying,he is taking his anti-catholicism to ridiculous extremes.Acknowlege a person's merit even if you don't agree with his/her religious or political views.

For instance Mathama Gandhi was one of the greatest men of the last century.He was not a christian but I admire his heroic deeds and would never try to water down his achievements because of his religious affiliations.The same things goes for Martin Luther King Jnr.He was a protestant minister but I will forever respect his heroic deeds

To you "Mahatma Ghandi was one of the greatest men of the last century" and yet he was known to be a big racist. Here is a quote of what he said about black Africans:

"Only a degree removed from the animal. Also, Kaffirs are as a rule uncivilized - the convicts even more so. They are troublesome, very dirty and live almost like animals." (Reference: CWMG, Vol VIII, pp. 135-136).

No wonder he is now turned into an idol to be worshipped as you can see MT doing below:

davidylan: We all knew she was a fraud. No story here.

How many of you knew she was a fraud? Why not provide us with evidence of the fraud you know. Then compare her fraud with those of Bishop Oyedepo, pastor Chris, rev okotie, pastor oritsejafor, and loads of MOG that litter our landscape.
