I remember a statement she made about the sick and dying that she “didn’t care if they uttered Christ or Allah or Hindu Deity names as long as they died with their interpreted name of God on their lips.” It was a very syncrestic statement not compatable with scripture and it put me on edge, making me wary of Theresa’s total ministry and her motives. Press writing can be very bad so I reserve some opinions regarding that statement and after 12 years or so when I read that statement I might not be quoting the statement word for word though I am sure of the accuracy of the statement.
Not syncretism but an acceptance that they had found at least a part of the truth. Of course, I accept the idea of a “good pagan.”
