- LETTERS, Page 16Mother Teresa's Qualities
-
-
- There is enough in your interview with Mother Teresa to
- challenge and convict any of us (INTERVIEW, Dec. 4). But her
- comment on abortion -- "If a mother can kill her own child, then
- what is left of the West to be destroyed?" -- fairly leaps off the
- page. Those who champion the rights of women need to understand
- that a desire to protect the unborn is not synonymous with a desire
- to oppress women.

-
- It's too bad that Mother Teresa cannot view other religions
- as being as valid and as authentic as her own Roman Catholicism.
- Her holier-than-thou attitude toward Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam and
- Judaism smacks of bigotry and condescension.
