er? Seems like in every thread that mother theresa is mentioned in, goons have a meltdown about how she didn't follow good science and was actually bad. I have to assume this comes from some pop scientist thats popular with dorks. ? thanks.

She only once more heard the voice of God, and she believed the doors of heaven had been closed and bolted against her. The more she longed for some sign of his presence, the more empty and desolate she became. i'm out

Yeah, this sounds like someone who actually goes by what's in the bible. She may have been a bad person, but she was a model Christian.

There was a book by Hitchens, and film by Hitchens and some other guy, and a Penn & Teller: Bullshit! episode. The basic arguments are: 1. Her missions didn't have adequate medical care, were staffed by untrained volunteers, and were unsanitary. 2. She visited some shady dictators. 3. The money she probably raised probably could have done more good if it was allocated more intelligently. 4. She was religious, and therefore a stupid human being bitch.

LOVE LOVE SKELETON posted:i liked the episodes that weren't about government policy I think it was late Season 1 with the anti-environmentalist "lol look at these hippies, see what happens when we ask them to petition against dihydrogen monoxide!" episode where they closed by saying basically everything was perfectly fine in the environment because someone from the Cato Institute said so. I really hope they ate their words on that.

penn gillette is a grotesque inflatable, deftly manipulated by teller as the ultimate misdirection.

tetsuo posted:The libertarianism felt really heavy handed at times and I stopped watching pretty early on. Libertarianism is completely helpless on environmental policy, it literally has nothing to offer. So a true believer like Penn Gillette has to pretend pollution it isn't a problem at all, because they have no other option. But the fast food and teen abstinence episodes were good.

Penn's a rear end kinda and I do disagree with him on a good bit of stuff but he is still a charming dude despite himself. He looks really weird now that he lost all the weight, has this weird turkey snood like thing going on with his neck.

All the bad things they say about her are true so I don't see why it matters where someone might have learned it. People still bring up Mother Theresa as if she is some sort of inspirational figure and since she isn't someone we should emulate it's only right that her reputation get torn down.
