182. Mother T. was a scam artist extraordinaire.
She took millions of dollars and did not use ANY of it to help patients with medical care. She thought their suffering made them closer to God. They didn't think so.
Her book keeper talked to Hitchens and told him that they were not allowed to use any money, even small amounts, for their own nuns' care, nor to use it to help patients.

To me that is absolutely criminal. She was not running a hospital and she was NOT relieving suffering.

Hitchens was observing observable fact -- no health care or medicines, and NOT because of lack of money. Far from it.
