Ahhh, the Controversy About Mother Teresa, Who Is Now, Yes, A SAINT!!!!!!

I've been to Las Vegas, twice. When asked what I thought, I always said, Beneath the tinsel

and glitter, is more tinsel and glitter.

Sort of like the Catholic church, Beneath the myths, superstitions, tacky costumes, beanie caps (for cryin' out loud), unending bizarre rituals, talking snakes, virgin births, parting seas, drinking the blood of and eating the body of you-know-who, and on and on....is yes, more of the same.

Here's the CNN article about Saint Teresa. Take a look at the chart that shows how a mere mortal becomes a saint. What's truly great about all of this is that there has to be two miracles before sainthood. I'm not wasting time on the miracles. Folks, it's 2016 and we're still talking about miracles. 

One the Saint's most vocal critics was Christopher Hitchens.

Catholic church or Christopher Hitchens????? What do you folks think? Lest you folks think I don't like Catholics, my best friend was almost-a-priest. Thank the Lord he saw the light!

And, lest you think I don't like Catholics and the Catholic church....what I don't like is religion.
