To: Luddite Patent Counsel
Can anyone refute the facts that are alleged?
Which facts, that they lived with and as the poor? That was widely known, was openly advertised as part of the Order, and it was intentional. If this woman was surprised by that she is a fool.

If you mean the claims that the money disappeared, or whatever it was this woman insinuated, she provides no “facts” to support that insinuation.

All she can say is that she processed lots of checks. For an order as large and as well known as this, that is hardly surprising, nor is it evidence of malfeasance. She also notes that Mother Theresa wasn’t out shaking folks down for that money. It costs a lot of money to treat aids patients and others, and I see little evidence the money wasn’t spent, or is unaccounted for. That they don’t want to open their books to you is hardly a basis for you to claim there are problems. To the extent you think otherwise, I’ll look forward to stopping by and examining your professional books.

When donations are solicited for helping the poor, and are not used for that purpose, that's what we call fraud.
Do you have some evidence that this happened?
Mother Theresa took money under false pretenses, pure and simple.
Again, your evidence is?

No money was ever spent on treatment, medicine or pain relief. Inmates were not allowed to be visited by family or friends. If you can show where any money was spent on medical care for those in her custody, please do so. That has not been done by her or any of her supporters and that is why this debate continues.

The woman was a practitioner of Corporal Mortification and enjoyed the hands on contact with the suffering. It made her feel closer to Jesus.
