Ep 127 - Suffering for Salvation: The Complicated Legacy of Mother Teresa
Listen, Farz knew that Taylor was going to yell about this, and she did. Life is hard and if you have the means and opportunity to help people you totally should, it's just really hard to see the 'help' on terms that are wildly unfair. Mother Teresa's legacy involves NOT giving pain medication to sick people, keeping millions of dollars in bank accounts around the world, and truly believing that the more you suffer, the closer you are to God. Which we argue, isn't really helping then is it? Again, you can be religious, that's great if it works for you. Just please don't hurt people in the name of your religion.
