Answer 1

Well I barely know anything about her than what you told me before.

Answer 2

Two reasons: She spent her life caring for the poor and ill. And, I don't believe in Sainthood, but that doesn't mean a whole sector of the world population doesn't. In the world of organized religion, she's a Saint, and by this reason alone, the so-called official honor is overdue. Just do it. Put that crown on a shining example of humanity already.

Answer 3

I don't think she will care

Comments

She showed no concern for the impoverished, despite receiving millions in donations and receiving medical treatment at a hospital. It's heart-wrenching to think that even though she was given so much aid, she refused to offer modern medical care to the poor under her care. It's a painful reality that some Christians believe that only the poor should suffer to attain God's love, while they themselves lead comfortable lives. This hypocrisy is utterly distressing and heartbreaking.

I never heard this argument, but it is possible that some people think this way. It is not a Christian thought, though.

She's no hero in my book, but I don't have the impression she lived a comfortable life.

Answer 4

Since its not my religion, it is irrelevant to me and to God.

So you aren't a Christian?

---

I'm not catholic.

---

I'm not catholic, nor do I accept what passes as Christianity today. But I do believe in Christ.

---

So do you think there are non-Christian elements which are being labelled as Christianity today? What are they?

---

Yes, almost everything. What passes as Christianity today bears little in common with the early church and its teachings, and shares more in common with paganism. Specifically Baal,and Mithraism. Modern Christians have been fooled into believing a lie. Christians didn't convert pagans. Pagans converted Christians.
