A young girl holds out her hand -- horribly scarred when a senior nun applied a red hot knife as a punishment for misbehavior. Allegations of child abuse and neglect are surfacing along with serious questions about the administration of the charity's vast pool of donated money.

A volunteer claims she witnessed mistreatment: "I've seen smacking... yanking around babies by their arms, letting their heads wobble." In a rare interview Mother Teresa's successor, Sister Nirmala, defends the mission but says she has no idea how much money it has "No-body knows -- it's God's maths". Critics argue that funds go to religious campaigns rather than poverty relief. Meanwhile, one of Mother Teresa's many supporters defends her legacy: "She is in the hearts of most people a saint..."

Produced by ABC Australia
Distributed by Journeyman Pictures


Check 6.20 , four seven year old children branded with a heated knife by a sister in Mother Teresa's mission because they were suspected of theft. And what gobsmacked me was the head of the Mother-Teresa Mission's statement

She admitted to the charges and claims its a work of "god"
..
..
"we accept it as god's goodness(???) to us..to remind us, remember who you are serving"

:puke:

Why is this woman not behind bars for aiding and abetting Horrid Child Abuse?


Also according to this ABC documentary, Mother Teresa accepted money for her charity from anything who was willing to give, regardless of their origin or the origin of the money. Millions came from Dictators and criminals, including Charles Keating(key fraudster in the 1990s insurance and savings scandal, who donated 1.2 million in stolen money to Teresa's Charity). When asked to return the stolen money gifted to the charity, Mother Teresa refused to do so.

When asked how much money this wealthy charity owns, the answer given by the head of the charity is "nobody knows, god knows"
:crazy:


Hopefully one day people would come to see evangelism/missionary activity in the same light they see the KKK's notions of racial superiority. Both posit that one is better than the other and do not/should not have any place in civilized society.
