Remember when mother Teresa paid a pornstar to keep her mouth shut while she was running for election? Yeah, I heard she couldn’t beat those charges in a court of law.
That is a gross oversimplification of Mother Teresa. I’m no fan of hers, but let’s dislike her for truthful reasons rather than exaggerations.
She never reveled in anyone’s suffering, though she did remark that suffering brings us closer to God, which I would consider an unhelpful stance at best.
She ran multiple hospice care centers because no one was doing anything and people were just dying in the street. She had extremely limited resources and could only provide limited medical care as she wasn’t a doctor and again, I say this with intended emphasis, literally no one else was doing anything to help.
She saw unimaginable suffering and did everything in her power to reduce that suffering to the extent of her ability and resources, which was far more than anyone else was doing.
I don’t think she’s a saint, but I think her goals and efforts were laudable even if her beliefs and methods were less than ideal.
This Wikipedia page highlights the controversy surrounding the quality of medical care, but also shares the counter argument, which is that they struggled with the same problems as the rest of healthcare in India and were treating people no one else would.
They weren’t treating them they were refusing treatments for people under their care. Saying suffering brings u closer to God and then inflicting and or prolonging that suffering makes her a shitty person.
Even in the critical article in the wikipedia, they noted that they were giving limited treatment to the best of their ability. Their ability, however was lacking. To say that they denied treatment to encourage suffering is a far cry from the harshest criticism I’ve come across from anyone who actually witnessed their facilities.
Again, I’m not a fan of Teresa. If there’s more evidence of what you’re saying, that’s totally valid, I’ve just not seen it myself and I did some digging myself just to make sure of what I was talking about.

Mother Teresa was a horrible person who reveled in the suffering of others while avoiding suffering herself.
His statement is truer than he knows if he’s comparing himself to her.
