I suggest actually reading about what Father Damien did. Once you do, you will no longer be tempted to make such comments.
Priest Who Aided Lepers In Hawaii To Become Saint
"Lepers' Apostle" to Be Declared a Saint
Finally, It's Official: Molokai's Hero = Hawaii's Saint
A Parish of Lepers [Bl. Damien Joseph de Veuster of Molokai]
So much for stating that I was *not* making any personal (negative) comments about Father Damien. Egads. It was comment about that particular *name*, and its secular associations, at this period in history. Not that hard, unless someone is just itching to be offended.
