He wrote that during that period, Mother Teresa did not feel God "in
her heart or in the eucharist".

Thanks, I really wanted to think about Mother Teresa's eucharist.

A small blast from the past our favorite prospective saint as a
receiver of stolen goods:
In the Outlook section of the Washington Post for 10/29/95, there
was an interesting article by Christopher Hitchens on everyone's
favorite Nobel Prize winning Saint, Mother Teresa. In common with her
co-religionists, she does not scruple overmuch where the money comes
from, so long as it comes. Charles Keating, in addition to being a
swindler on an absolutely Republican scale, was one of her
contributors to the tune of a cool million. During that worthy's
trial, Mother Teresa wrote to the presiding judge, one Lance Ito, in
support of her holy cash cow:
"I don't know anything about Mr. Charles Keating's work or his
business or the matters you are dealing with," she stated, "I only
know that he has been kind and generous to God's poor and always ready
to help whenever there was a need. It is for this reason that I do not
want to forget him now while he and his family are suffering. Jesus
has told us 'whatever you do to the least of my brethren YOU DID IT TO
ME.'"
Can anyone say attempting to bring holy pressure to bear upon the
trial? Paul Turley, assistant district attorney for Los Angeles,
apparently did. He sent a reply to Mother T in early 1992, after the
trial was completed. He wrote as a private citizen, and put it to her:
"Mr. Keating was convicted of defrauding 17 individuals of
more than $900,000. These 17 persons were representative of 17,000
individuals from whom Mr. Keating stole $252,000,000. . . . The
victims of Mr. Keating's fraud came from a wide spectrum of society.
Some were wealthy and well educated. Most were people of modest means
and unfamiliar with high finance. One was, indeed, a poor carpenter
who did not speak English and had his life savings stolen by Mr.
Keating's fraud.
"The Biblical slogan of your organization is 'As long as you
did it to one of these My least brethren, you did it to me,' Mr.
Turley pointed out, continuing, "the 'least' of the bretheren are
among those whom Mr. Keating fleeced without flinching. As you well
know, divine forgiveness is available to all, but forgiveness must be
preceded by admission of sin. Not only has Mr. Keating failed to admit
his sins and his crimes, he persists in self-righteously blaming
others for his own misdeeds.
"You urge Judge Ito to look into his heart--as he sentences
Charles Keating--and do what Jesus would do. I submit the same
challenge to you. Ask yourself what Jesus would do if he were given
the fruits of a crime; what Jesus would do were he in possession of
money that had been stolen; what Jesus would do if he were being
exploited by a thief to ease his conscience?
"I submit that Jesus would promptly and unhesitatingly return
the stolen property to its rightful owners. You should do the same.
You have been given money by Mr. Keating that he has been convicted of
stealing by fraud. Do not permit him the 'indulgence' he desires. Do
not keep the money. Return it to those who worked for it and earned
it!
"If you contact me I will put you in direct contact with the
rightful owners of the property now in your possession."
=========================================
The old tart croaked without ever getting in touch with Mr. Turley;
I'll leave it to the imagination of the Gentle Reader as to whether
she ever sent the money back.

Why not? Popes sold indulgences, so why can't a saint-to-be? It's
not like she had morals or something.

Yes, that Judge Ito.
Keating was an utter sleaze. Atypical religious conservative
hypocrite. He prosecuted Larry Flynt for obscenity, that was bad. And
he looted the funds from the savings and loan company he ran.
But giving some of the money to Mother Theresa made it OK.
If she had had any decency she would have returned it.
But then we all knew she hadn't any.

gladly accepted donations from Al Capone while he was ordering mass
murder and extortion.

Uh, nooooooo, not a chance there. But you can slow down and read it again. She
didn't pocket it, she gave to the poor.

All men are sinners. If the church accepted money from you or ACapone, and it
would, it would still be tainted money.
By the way, there is no Satan.
He will be your leader one moment after you die for unrepentant and unconfessed
sin.

And, with that note, I would like to apologize on behalf of all
atheists for the behavior or Mother Teresa. The atheist community in
no way condones such unethical behavior and we regret the suffering
that his member of our ranks has caused in India and elsewhere.
