"MT Mother Teresa was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction." - Christopher Hitchens
Please read The Missionary Position, Mother Theresa in Theory and Practice by Hitchens.
Sadly the myth is perpetuated by movies like this one. The reality is dark, painful, and built on the suffering of others. Come to think of it, the reality is much more representative of religion than the myth. Anyhow, give Hitchens a read.
