Because the truth is reality. Why do YOU ignore it? Mother Teresa was a fraud. Tell me ONE thing I outlined that is not true. Just one of these facts.

And if you can't show evidence that my facts are not correct, then why do you continue to believe in the propaganda that Mother Teresa represented good and not evil?

You know better than that, cupper. It isn't on anyone else to disprove what you are saying. It is on you to prove what you are asserting.

Of course you realize one cannot link to a 1991 article, right.

But at least I can link to the author, who reposted it. Close enough?

All what I stated are facts.

Your hit job on one of the finest persons that ever lived is what represents evil.
All you've done here is shed a light on yourself. Each can make their own assessment. But I already knew the truth on *that* reality...and that's a fact.

So you ignore what I pointed out was reality, and you would rather believe the myth? You can't point out anything that I listed that is false, so you choose to attack me rather than the facts.

Mother Teresa: Where Are Her Millions? | Science and Rationalists' Association of India

Oh no, cupper. Really? This is the "respected" article? It's barely readable (either it was badly translated or badly edited or both), has no citations of its own except to the home page of the magazine itself but lots of unsupported "quotes" by various people who claim to be "witnesses" and is obviously an opinion piece. So to answer your question, no, not good enough. This rejoinder is like a Christian citing questions.org as supporting evidence for an argument.

Now how about evidence for all your bullet points I quoted?

Right, again, you'll forgive me but, supporting evidence, please?

Love all you guys a lot and not wanting to hurt anyone, I promise you that.
cupper....take a good hard cold honest look....this is your life, this is what being steeped in hatred and bitterness turns your life into. Even the people who care about you are in tears over this and you just don't care. all that matters to you is your hatred, not the feelings of anyone else in the world, just your insistence on being right. what an empty cold bitter toxic place to reside, can you see that hatred drives everyone away, even the people who are fond of you?

Would a former nun who was inside the order for almost a decade be credible? Just wondering, before I post her story.

Why throw out the word "hate"?

And why is it so difficult to accept the fact that she was NOT helping there destitute who are ill, even though there was millions of dollars available?

How is pointing out facts translate into being hate? Is it because its not popular?
