He is currently revered as a Catholic saint and is one of the four world human rights activists along with Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and Nelson Mandela.
She is well known to us as a person who worked hard for poverty and the poor throughout her life.

I choose poverty for our poor people. However, they are hungry, poorly clothed, homeless, disabled, blind, diseased, uncared for and rejected by society.
I gladly accept this award in the name of those who are unloved, a burden to society, and those whom everyone ignores.
(Quotes from Mother Teresa upon receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979)
Most of us are probably aware of the activities that Mother Teresa has done. She (she even appeared in textbooks…)
It is an undeniable fact that she is a great person who dedicated her life to the poor and needy.
As such, she is revered as a saint, but no matter how saintly a person is, there are bound to be one or two ugly truths in a person.
He is a critic. What makes Hitchens unique as a critic is that he does not spare any criticism even of people who are generally considered ‘good men’.
They say she helped launder their image by accepting donations from bad people.
“I claim, but what kind of criticism is this infinitely merciful woman receiving?
Even though she received numerous donations and a huge amount of money, she did not improve the facilities.
This wasn’t just about improving the facilities; the ward she was running was literally a bare-bones ward, with no medicine or professional medical staff.
It is a place where patients come and receive treatment.
Wash the injection with cold water, recycle it, and place all patients in one place.
In fact, people who could survive with mild treatment were getting sicker or dying from newer diseases while staying here.
Even women who were raped and became pregnant were forced to give birth in any way possible.
When patients are in pain, go to their side and
We will overcome this through the power of prayer.
“He said.
In fact, this happened because of her beliefs; she thought that poverty and suffering were God’s blessings.
On the other hand, when she suffered from diseases such as old age or heart disease, she received treatment at the best facilities in India.
So, a question arises here: where did all that money and support supplies go?
In fact, the details of the use of the subsidy have not yet been disclosed.
And the sources of these subsidies were often very dirty.
Those who criticize Teresa say that the donations given to her are money used to launder her identity and image.
In fact, many of the people who gave support to Mother Teresa also donated large sums of money to create her image.
In addition, she defended the dictatorship that donated money to her and showed favor to those in power and criminals.
The background behind is a composite

Here, Duvalier is a vicious dictator famous for violating human rights and committing atrocities.
The only reason she established a relationship with them was because of donations, and they sometimes succeed in creating their image through donations.
And the most problematic thing here was receiving donations from a man named ‘Charles Keating’.
Charles Keating donated a large amount of money to Teresa before the fraud was caught.
He sent countless people into the abyss
When Charles Keating was being tried in court, Teresa personally wrote and sent a petition for Keating.
“I hope you forgive Keating for his mistakes like Jesus did.”
And the judge who received that petition
“The money that Charles Keating donated out of love also included money from poor people.
Jesus also wants this money to go back to its owner.
“If you contact us again, we will make arrangements with the victim so that the money stolen by Charles Keating can be returned to its original owner.”

I ended up reading it…
Teresa’s defenders responded to this incident by saying, “Because a huge amount of money is needed to provide relief to the poor, good-willed donations are the limit.”
Regarding this, Hitchens said, “The amount of donations Teresa has received in the 50 years since she began her relief work in earnest is an incredibly large amount.
As we saw earlier, the amount of money received from politicians and businessmen is also enormous.
Nevertheless, it is unacceptable that her facility is not properly equipped with even a single relief item.
Teresa’s purpose is not to alleviate suffering, but to propagate a new sect based on death, suffering, and submission.
Teresa once revealed her true feelings in an interview.
“You are suffering like Jesus on the cross,” she said.
So it is clear that Jesus is kissing you.”
He said.
In fact, she once refused to provide relief supplies to her facility.
she just
It was to protect the belief that poverty and suffering are God’s blessings.
(As stated in the previous sentence, he received treatment at the best hospital in India…)
Mother Teresa devoted her entire life to poverty and those who suffered from it.
Even if she did something wrong, you should not belittle her achievements or good activities.
However, no matter how many things she did well, she should not blindly cover up the things she did wrong.
