I've already done extensive reading and thorough digging into this monster's depraved behavior when she ran the order. My comment was not off the cuff. It's deeply informed by the cruel and terrible ways in which she behaved. She said many times that suffering in her patients was was glorious and beautiful. And it's a fact that she declined to provide pain-relieving treatment when she had the financial means to do so. What a monster!

Look, I already know that Catholic nuns and priests are disgusting pieces of shit. I have never once met one nun or priest who would disavow the Church's horrific teachings that gay people like me and my family members commit "acts of grave depravity" and that we are "intrinsically disordered."

So I'm not exactly impartial, but that bald hate speech causes me to recognize nuns and priests as evil and vicious.

The fact that they try to claim that it's possible to be respect us even while they call us depraved and disordered makes me revile them all the more.

But even if I did not already think that, the idea of not providing pain-relieving treatment to suffering patients is horrifying. This particular nun was even more cruel and horrifying than most nuns.

You know what? I'm not depraved. I'm not disordered. I'm a decent, loving human being who wants to care for people and ameliorate their pain.

That's why the thought of "Mother" Teresa fills me with disgust. That's what the thought of Catholic nuns and priests fills me with horror.

Don't bother responding. I don't want anything to do with somebody who supports these disgusting, evil people.

I AM NOT DEPRAVED!!!!!!
