Mother Teresa: A Biography ??????
2008-05-09 18:00:00 Mother Teresa: A Biography?????? # Author: Meg Greene# Format: PDF 1.5MB# Number of Pages: 174# Publisher: Greenwood Press (2004)# Language: English# ISBN-10: 0313327718# ISBN-13: 9780313327711In this new biography, students will follow Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu from her humble Albanian birth to worldwide celebrity as Mother Teresa. The nun who attended to the dying and diseased in Calcutta, India, and established her Missionaries of Charity around the world is revealed to have a singular determination from a young age. As a woman in the patriarchal Catholic system, she had to prove to the hierarchy, even the Vatican, that she was capable of handling each project she proposed. Her vision to live and work among the "poorest of the poor" as one of them led to the founding of a new order that tended to society's outcasts. The narrative chronicles the expansion and success of the order and the eventual attention that was showered on her efforts. This increasing attention led to scrutiny an...

Sunday with Mother Teresa [Pharyngula]

Sponsored by Minnesota Atheists Sunday, Nov. 18, 2007 1:30-2:30 p.m. Bedlam Theatre, Minneapolis Around the world Mother Teresa has become an unassailable icon of charity, love and endless toil for the benefit of the “poorest of the poor.” Her image as the savior of the poor people of Calcutta earned untold millions in donations, multitudes of awards, including the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, and a fast track to sainthood. Persons who have questioned her mode of operation and publicized the true nature of her contributions have been widely and vehemently vilified. Now, with the release of some of her private writings, some are calling her a “closet atheist.” Minnesota Atheists’ associate president Cynthia Egli will speak on the controversies surrounding Mother Teresa’s life and work and answer the question, “Should the Catholic Church canonize Mother Tere...

Mother Teresa and Crisis of Faith
2007-09-09 04:27:00 Mother Teresa: Come Be My Light We know Mother Teresa as an icon of spirituality. Her associates always observed her connected to God in silent prayer. In front of camera and on television, she was routinely seen in silent and peaceful prayer. Recently published book, "Mother Teresa: Come Be My Light" presents an entirely contradictory picture. This book is a compilation of her letters and confessions to her superiors over a period of 66 years. Rev. Brian Kolodiejchuk is the editor and compiler of the book. He himself is a senior Missionaries of Charity member. He is her postulator, responsible for petitioning for her sainthood. He gathered the letters as a proof to support her sainthood. She requested to destroy all the correspondence describing her arid spiritual landscape that was devoid of deity. Her request was not accepted by her church. This icon of spirituality was living a completely opposite spiritual reality in her private life. She was going ...

The crises of the nut/mother Teresa
2007-09-03 10:51:00 I hardly trusted my eyes: in the time magazine this week was a long report over the faith crises of nut/mother Teresa. In a new book ( “Mother Teresa: Come My Light ”) are specified their letters out over 60 years. The introduction for the article reads:Secret letters show she that ago spent almost 50 years without sensing the presence OF God into ago life. What of does experience teach US about ago the VALUE OF doubt?It is an interesting analysis of doubt and the dark night of the soul. If a in such a way given and consistent woman such as nut/mother Teresa over 50 years (!) no feeling of God present has, how we deal then with doubt and God of felt absence?

Follow Mother Teresa’s Example, Embrace Doubt
2007-08-30 16:20:00 Since the story broke last week, I have been writing an essay on the revelations of Mother Teresa’s lack of faith. Many other “non-believing” sites have posted the story, but I was trying to give it my own unique perspective. As I have shown (hopefully), I try not to wallow in other’s shortcomings. I try to focus on their beliefs and their ramifications on our world. I have decided to forgo my comments and point you to an essay written by Sam Harris. It is titled, “The Sacrifice of Reason,” and was posted yesterday on Newsweek’s and Washington Post’s, On Belief web site. I definitely recommend that you read the entire article (Click Here). A few excerpts: Humanity has had a long fascination with blood sacrifice. In fact, it has been by no means uncommon for a child to be born into this world only to be patiently and lovingly reared by religious maniacs who believe that the best way to keep the sun on its course or to ensure a rich harvest is to lead him by tender ...

Mother Teresa: Spirituality In The Absence Of Faith
2007-08-26 06:27:00 I am feeling both deep pain and great joy to learn that Mother Theresa, who ministered to the needs of the poor, sick, orphaned, and dying for over 40 years, spent virtually that entire time without sensing the presence of God in her life. If you haven’t learned about these startling revelations, see, for example, the article in Time titled “Mother Teresa’a Crisis of Faith”. It reports in

Mother Teresa's Secret: She Was A Hypocrite
2007-08-25 12:35:00 Source: CBS In life, Mother Teresa was an icon ? for believers ? of God's work on Earth. Her ministry to the poor of Calcutta was a world-renowned symbol of religious compassion. She was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In a rare interview in 1986, Mother Teresa told CBS News she had a calling, based on unquestioned faith. "They are all children of God, loved and created by the same heart of God," she said. But now, it has emerged that Mother Teresa was so doubtful of her own faith that she feared being a hypocrite, reports CBS News correspondent Mark Phillips. In a new book that compiles letters she wrote to friends, superiors and confessors, her doubts are obvious. Shortly after beginning work in Calcutta's slums, the spirit left Mother Teresa. "Where is my faith?" she wrote. "Even deep down? there is nothing but emptiness and darkness... If there be God ? please forgive me." read more
Mother Teresa Doubted God's presence
2007-08-25 11:34:00 From here Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who has been put on the “fast track” to sainthood, was so tormented by doubts about her faith that she felt “a hypocrite,” it has emerged from a book of her letters to friends and confessors. Shortly after beginning her work in the slums of Calcutta, she wrote: “Where is my faith? Even deep down there is nothing but emptiness and darkness. If there be a God — please forgive me.” Whew! I thought I was only one! Seriously, how can one have no doubts about God when God can't be sensed by those five senses we use for everything else? To doubt is to think. To think is to grow. Everybody should doubt God every once in a while- on purpose.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta
2007-08-24 20:49:00 In Mother Teresa's Crisis of Faith Time Magazine discusses a new book on MotherTeresa.A new, innocuously titled book, Mother Teresa: Come Be My Light (Doubleday), consists primarily of correspondence between Mother Teresa and her confessors and superiors over a period of 66 years.The Book reveals that for the last nearly half-century of her life Mother Teresa felt no presence of God whatsoever ? or, as the book's compiler and editor, the Rev. Brian Kolodiejchuk, writes, "neither in her heart or in the Eucharist.""After more than a decade of open-wound agony, Teresa seems to have begun regaining her spiritual equilibrium with the help of a particularly perceptive adviser. The Rev. Joseph Neuner, whom she met in the late 1950s and confided in somewhat later, was already a well-known theologian, and when she turned to him with her "darkness," he seems to have told her the three things she needed to hear: that there was no human remedy for it (that is, she should not feel responsible ...
Mother Teresa An Atheist?
2007-08-24 17:36:00 Was Mother Teresa an atheist? Andrew Brown at Comment is Free asks this intriguing question in light of recently released writings which show that Mother Teresa had serious questions about her faith. Brown writes, "...even as she was receiving the Nobel prize, she asked her confessor to pray for her because she could feel nothing when she prayed herself and no longer had any experience of God."The implications are certainly interesting to ponder, although I would be shocked if this new information changed any minds. Christians desperately need her to remain a symbol of Christianity, and so she will remain one.Tags: Mother Teresa, atheist

Mother Teresa's Final Analysis
2007-02-27 13:31:01 Leaders are individuals who set examples for others, whether or not they intend to do so. The following Eight Points for reflection and renewal are from Mother Teresa. I add further details.1) People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centred. Forgive them anyway.-As you forgive, you choose not to be lowered to their level and thus rise-up higher to inspire. People who gripe about life would like nothing better than to hurt successful people. Why give them that satisfaction? Why not inspire them to transform instead?2) If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.-Be kind because this is your nature, not because you have ulterior motives. Be genuine and you will attract sincere, like-minded people to assist you with your pursuits. &nbs-p; 3) If you're successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies. Succeed anyway.-People ... |
