Mother Teresa lived in India, particularly Calcutta. She was a Sister of the Missionaries of Charity (that's why she always wore white with blue stripes) and she was a Catholic.
She took care of the sick, the dying and the poor. It did not matter if they had anything from a cold to leprosy, she would take them, bathe them, feed them and love them.
She made every attempt to have others treat these people as they should be: as human. One of her most famous quotes is: " It is not what we do, but how much love we put into doing it". Of couse there are always others who dont agree and this being the internet, such opinions can always be found. Try the book review below by '''John M. Swomley.

I can't really disagree with your characterization of the nature of religion. Yes, religion is included in human rights but it isn't always defined as freedom of religion rather it is describe as "freedom of conscience" to include even those who have no believe in a divine being who runs the show. Atheists, agnostics, etc are included.
How do we get human rights?
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever our race, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, religion, language, or any other status. We are all equally entitled to our human rights. Although the concept of human rights understands those rights to be universal, any person’s enjoyment of human rights flows from the political system under which they live. They come from the legal system, economic system and the cultural systems of any given country.
Why would some Christian's disagree with some of the human rights?
Because religions want to control peoples lives and if they are given full human rights they might do things their religion says is wrong.
