It looks like a cunt, which in this case is really appropriate.

100% agree

In her hospice care centers, Mother Teresa practiced her belief that patients only needed to feel wanted and die at peace with God — not receive proper medical care — and medical experts went after her for it.

In 1994, the British medical journal The Lancet reported that medicine was scarce in her centers and that patients received nothing close to the treatment that they needed to relieve their pain.

Meanwhile, some doctors took to calling her missions “homes for the dying” since her Calcutta home for the sick had a mortality rate of more than 40 percent. But in her view, this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

In response to all the criticism, Mother Teresa allegedly said, “There is something beautiful in seeing the poor accept their lot, to suffer it like Christ’s Passion. The world gains much from their suffering.

Yikes. I was raised catholic, and everyone always talked about her like she was the best thing since sliced bread. I feel like this is basically the catholic version of how people venerate the Confederacy, willfully ignoring that they fought an entire war to maintain the right to enslave people.

Methinks more statues need to come down.

Interesting fact: Mother Teresa was born in 1910, and pre-sliced bread was invented in 1928, 18 years later.
