Was Mother Teresa really a saint? - Page 5

About Godbole, I said the selfless work that one does makes one a saintly exception. In my eyes he is one and he doesn't have to have a Halo round him to make him one.

I have spent a day at one of their centres and found inmates belonging to other faiths.

Funds I believe come from all over the world and not necessarily the Vatican. The funds that come are for the running of the centres and not conversion. If someone converts it is out of their own free will or maybe at times as several of you have said economic, social or a caring need.

You are making a claim here (your words : Yes! she got converted by Mother Teresa.) Thats preposterous. You can't be absolutely sure about.

Nirmala Joshi was not converted by Mother as you claim but converted herself because she believed in that faith and wanted to serve the faith.

I rest my case.

I am repeating myelf but again there is no doubt about Mother's work. But Vatican assigned sainthood to her mainly because of her religion and her active conversion of many Indians. If she was not a Catholic then she wouldn't be considered a saint by them..... I agree with point 😊

Here I am debating from my perspective and my opinion is someone who worked for the needy with another motive is not a saint. She is definitely not selfish.

well said maya👏
