Please guys. Let's stop using Mother Theresa as a symbol of unconditional love. Her gloria is a bit tainted today. She siphoned off large sums of money that people gave to her to give to the poor, and gave it to the church to promote Catholicism. It was most of it, something like 60% or something, depending on how you count. But sure, she unselfishly spread Catholicism. If we think that's a good thing, then I guess its fair to polish her gloria a bit. But considering the popes stance on combating aids and so on.... it doesn't make Mother Theresa look so good. If you're going to scam people and keep your gloria intact, you might want to make sure the money goes to something positive. Like helping instead of killing people.

edit: but this is no criticism against the discussion as such. I'm totally with you Tessa, that if you believe in heaven it's all about brownie points to get in. Which hardly is a selfless act. The big question is why all Christians don't all follow her example. I mean, its pretty much a no brainer. Eternity is a much longer time than the short stint here. But maybe that's better to take in another thread.
