LLB already suffers from low self esteem. Let's pray for her.

Christopher Hitchens suffers from low esteem. LB is just young and uninformed. No excuse for a bump on a log like Hitch to say the things he said.

Are you being serious here? If so, LLB, don't be ashamed. You handled yourself admirably. And you're obviously a bright gal.

You know what? Leave her the hell alone, she has an opinion and doesn't need folks to judge her and offer prayers for her, just because (egads!) she has an opinion!

LLB, really - read Malcolm Muggeridge's late 70's account of her. And some of the early 90's ones are also very telling and not commercialized. We should pray for each other. Good idea. Mother Teresa managed to see the good in all, the 'Jesus' in all people. She helped many, but also made a lot of 'stone soup' - got others to help and want to help and see the need for helping. I find it very telling that in the less than 7 years since her death, things have devolved very quickly - violence against Christians and the Sisters, charities running aground. Her influence was great in a country sometimes unstable and is sorely missed. It didn't benefit her, she wasn't living large on her fame, she remained unchanged - her 'fame' benefitted all Indians and citizens of India regardless of religion. Clearly missing now.
