Do you agree with those who called Mother Teresa a living saint when she was still alive?

A:Perhaps it is not so important whether I agree with this, but whether I ought to do so. In other words, was Mother Teresa a truly holy person without moral blemish. On the evidence, it would seem not. Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity which, in fairness to others working with the poor of Calcutta but with less publicity, was one of the smaller charities in Calcutta. Her work and achievements have been greatly exaggerated by the Catholic Church which, since Mother Teresa's death, has moved quickly to declare her a saint.Aroup Chatterjee, in a deposition submitted in February 1998 to the committee for beatification/canonization of Mother Teresa, said that if the Committee wants to confer sainthood on Mother Teresa for being an exceptional Catholic, then no doubt such honour is deserved. If on the other hand, sainthood is something the Committee would confer on somebody who is also more than ordinarily honest, "humble", dedicated to the poor, free of falsehoods and above all a person of unique integrity, then in his opinion Mother Teresa fell short of a being a shining example.


What did mother Teresa's attitudes have?
