Mother Teresa versus the Catholic Church

The Catholic Church is really placing quite a spin on Mother Teresa's lack of faith. They claim that God withheld Himself from her because he wanted to test her love and belief. Come on, guys, for fifty fucking years! That's so much bullshit it isn't worth the time it takes to consider it.

She had a "conversation" with Jesus while riding a train to a hospital in Calcutta because she was sick and exhausted and needed treatment and rest. She was sent to the hospital by her religious order at that time, which was responsible for running a private school for rich girls. The "conversation" was hallucinatory and was the fabrication of a feverish, overworked and overtired mind. Because she thought that the talk with Jesus was real, she suffered for the last fifty years of her life waiting for Jesus or God to talk to her again!

You assholes were more interested in keeping the facade in place than you were in helping the poor lady understand what happened and recover from her delusion. You and your church are a group of despicable and dishonest bastards. You are a bunch of phonies, bent on frightening people into believing that they need you to be saved and accepted by God. What you did to poor Mother Teresa is unforgivable. I doubt that the leaders of your church and most certainly the priests and nuns who violated little children, even believe in God. If you do, you certainly have a strange way of showing it.

Now you are trying to spin Mother Teresa's suffering as some kind of test she was plagued with for fifty years to prove her love and acceptance of God's will. You must have a sick, warped idea of what God is. To you, God must be one hell of a cruel, unkind, uncaring master who views His subjects with disdain and disgust. You can have him. I'll follow my path to a loving. caring God Who, if Mother Teresa dedicated her entire, complete life to His glory and service, would have shown her joy and happiness unbounded and untethered.
