Many many years ago, when I was a Roman Catholic Christian, I revered Mother Theresa and certainly thought that she should be made a saint one day.

In the years since abandoning religion altogether, I have learned more about what went on behind the scenes, and I now am disgusted by her. Her faith was never as certain as she claimed; millions of dollars went unaccounted for; she hobnobbed with dictators; etc etc etc.

She was certainly no more than human, with all the flaws and weaknesses common to our species; she was most certainly not a saint or someone who should be held up as worthy of emulation. The Church’s canonization process was a sham and pathetic, because it was a foregone conclusion.

The world needs to know that Mother Theresa never was, and never should be, a “saint.” 🙁
