Specter's quote: "He's (Ghandi) a lying, murdering, thieving, adulterer who denies God. If you consider that a good person, your standards are low."

[By God's standards Mother Teresa is a horrible bitch who deserves to burn in hell too, and babies, and well everyone except himself. Yet he exhibits all sorts of bad traits but you Christians pretend that it magically doesn't count when God acts like a jealous, petty, megomaniacal, murderous madman.

I would consider Ghandi or actually, any of the people on this board to be better than your vicious, vile deity. My standards aren't low pal, yours are.]

afacelessatheist, it's not my place to judge Mother Theresa. However, I have my doubts about anyone professing Roman Catholicism as authentic Christianity. I sincerely hope that Mother Theresa (who DID model a Christ-like life and attempt to bring glory to God, unlike Gandhi) had an authentic and living faith in Christ as her savior, and was not looking to the pope, the sacraments, or the Roman Catholic church for her salvation. If she decided to live a Christ-like life in the hopes that her behavior would pardon her sins and get her into heaven, then I'm afraid God will not be impressed. What God is looking for is faith in Christ, not good works. The only question God will ask ANYONE at the judgment seat is not "did you try your best?," but rather "how did you respond to my Son?" I hope that when God asks Mother Theresa why she should be allowed into Heaven, that she will (or, I should say, has) respond(ed) "because Jesus died for my sins," not "because I was a good Roman Catholic."
