Mervyn, I have absolutely no problem with Mother Teresa becoming a saint. People need to be honored for their contributions. We should be happy that so many poor people got and will get a reason to celebrate at least for a day. My only worry is that thousands of them would also get a reason to believe in fake miracle cures. I cannot imagine how many might die from curable diseases because they chose to try to become beneficiaries of her second miracle rather than seek standard medical treatment.
