Ok, classes are done, the house deal is over and closing will be in a few days, and I have more time. So of course onegoodmove.org offers some things to spend some time on. The first link brings up a guy on Youtube called mightybroke. He does a bit on Mother Theresa. Very interesting. According to him, she travels the world collecting money for her activities. You may think her activities are noble, and you may be right. This guy sees things differently. She spends her money installing Missionaries of Charity. They take in women and train them to be nuns. The way he presents it, it sounds like she trains these women to be like those guys in the white shirts that ride around on bicycles here in the States trying to convert everyone.

Then he talks about her 'houses of the dying'. She has these places where suffering people to if they are dying, and they live there kinda like a hospice. He highlights one in Calcutta, elucidating the fact that there are no doctors at this joint. He even has Christopher Hitchens on talking about her, which makes sense because he wrote a whole book about her.
