Did Mother Teresa show compassion

Answer 1

A:

Mother Teresa is famous for working with the poor in Calcutta and elsewhere around the world. She was a truly great communicator, and there are many quotes that show her compassionate side. However, those who observed Mother Teresa at work saw a darker side.

A truly compassionate person would want to alleviate pain and suffering whenever possible, yet Mother Teresa gloried in the suffering of those around her, believing that it was God's will that they suffer. She cared for those with leprosy, but did not provide the antibiotics that would have cured them. She cared for the dying destitute, but refused to provide strong painkillers, even for those with the unbearable pain of cancer. Sanal Edamaruku, President of Rationalist International, criticised the failure to give painkillers, writing that in her Homes for the Dying, one could "hear the screams of people having maggots tweezered from their open wounds without pain relief. On principle, strong painkillers were not administered even in severe cases."

Critics say that this indifference was not because of the lack of financial resources, since the Missionaries of Charity is believed to receive over a hundred million dollars a year in donations. Mother Teresa never herself refused strong painkillers or anaesthetics.
