In September of 1997, the world lost two of its most famous women – Diana, the former Princess of Wales, and Mother Teresa of Calcutta. The vast differences between the lives of the two women are obvious. Yet, they died within several days of each other and the fact that Diana was buried following her tragic death with a rosary in her folded hands given to her by Mother Teresa, has led some in the media to reflect on both the contrast and the connection between the two.

Princess Diana was famous for wearing pretty ( and expensive ) clothes. Also, for all of her charitable deeds. Of course, they would always call a press conference 15 minutes before she did a good deed, but there you go. Then she was going to marry a muslim and she came to a mysterious end. The end.

This led to speculation that Diana was converting to Catholicism.

It would have been Diana's ultimate slapdown of Charles and the windsor family she detested.

What’s sad is you probably consider yourself a Christian but openly mock the largest and oldest Christian faith in the world....

Princess Diana saw Mother Teresa’s work as something to admire, support, and (in a small way) imitate. If more people did even that much, it would make a difference.

Seriously? What did the attention addict Diana ever do besides show up and pose for the cameras?

I have always felt so sorry for her sons for the stories they had to read about her behavior.

I reject the pagan additions which make Catholicism another religion, not Christianity.
