She is parroting a man named Christopher Hitchens, a secular humanist who has made it his mission to discredit the memory of Mother Teresa.

Thanks for the link...I've heard of Hitchens being very negative toward Mother Teresa (understatement!) but didn't know any specifics.

To each his own, I guess, but I just don't get it.

"The communion of saints is the spiritual solidarity which binds together the faithful on earth, the souls in purgatory, and the saints in heaven in the organic unity of the same mystical body under Christ its head, and in a constant interchange of supernatural offices."

http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/04171a.htm

I guess I'm in the 'communion of saints' column rather than the Hitchens column on this one.
