This photo of Raghu Rai, shows how poor people begging were ignored by Mother Teresa. New volunteers were told that they should not give to beggars as Mother disapproved- Give to me instead she said Hence I have seen her nuns walk past destitute people and even those who come as they did in 2000 as refugees from major flooding in West Bengal hoping for a cup of tea from the nuns were refused. There were only ten that dared to come to Mother House but they were refused though inside foreign volunteers were eating bread, bananas and as much chi/tea as they could fit- and many of these 'volunteers' chose not to volunteer that day!

Pope John Paul beatified while Mother Teresa STILL not a Sain!
Why hasn't Pope Benedict sainted Mother Teresa yet???????? especially as in his earlier life as Father and later Cardinal Ratzinger he was one of Mother's great fans which meant that he must have often visited Shichu Bavan which is less than 100meters from Mother House. He would have seen the kind of terrible conditions that are pictured on sallywarner.blogspot.com and as many locals and long term volunteers are aware are well below United Nations Child Rights; which were ratified by India - where Mother's permanent home was and the country of her citizenship. She expired 5 years later... the conditions have improved slightly but still remain below the UN standards...
Does this photo does show some calculation..... maybe when millions of dollars donated have been spent on convents and religious paraphenalia instead of the unwanted babies she begged mothers to give her to care for.........
