    Mother Teresa. She held me in her arms when i was a baby ( Im from Calcutta) She never acted like she was famous one bit. Everyone saw her walking around the streets helping people all the time. :brokenheart: We need more people like her.


    Mother Teresa was a fraud. She was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction .As a result, she publicly supported policies that led directly to greater suffering among the people she had pledged to help, discouraging the use of prophylactics that could have prevented unwanted pregnancies and slowed the spread of AIDS and other STDs.

    Mother Teresa’s Homes of the Dying served only to warehouse the sick in unsanitary conditions until they were too weak to protest against baptism into the Catholic faith. Lets not even get into the atrocities at her homes for the dying. The last thing we need isore people that think suffering is a good thing.

    Have you been to India? Have you seen the suffering and horrible conditions? Have you seen people walk up to her crying for help? She walked with my dad one time and on their way she saw a man fallen in the gutter. Without even thinking she bent down and tried to pick him. She couldnt, so my dad lifted him up and took him back with her where she put him on a clean bed and got nurses to clean him feed him.... Im not Catholic...ive seen her work, first hand. ....this comment you wrote is truly poisonous. Have you tried helping people even a fraction of the way she tried?


    I've helped people more. I don't belive suffering and pain and death are good things like her. The children strapped down to beds and gagged, the horrible conditions people faced in her homes. Please tell me how they are good things.she refused pain medication to dying people so they could be more like Jesus in their suffering.

    Well I can certainly see that. At the young age of 36 I see you have helped a lot. However, I fail to understand how mocking somebody who have helped (admittedly fewer people than you while you worked in retail in Texas, playing on your iPhone, working out on the track) makes them a fraud? I mean I know you have lived a very tough life (what with the phone contract that you're having a hard time getting out of etc) but.. just try to imagine a woman helping out poor kids. That isn't too shabby in my humble opinion.

    Unfortunately, public cannot nominate Noble prize nominations else I would nominate you for noble prize, Poison.

    I'd call it a Not So Noble, and I'd go with Strychnine. It's slow n painful. Thumbs Up!

    Heath Ledger. It seemed so out of the blue.


    Selena. Because she was murdered and she had been kind of a wholesome role model for many young hispanic girls here in Texas. Nothing sadder than seeing all of her very young fans mourning her.

    Larry Hagman.

    I have been a big Dallas fan since I was 9 back in 1978, I still watch it to this day. I was delighted when it returned and I was so pleased to see JR up to his old tricks again. Larry will always be JR and JR will always be Larry, there will never be another.

    I thought he was amazing in the I Dream of Jeanne re-runs. Guy was gorgeous.

    Also, Leslie Carter.

    I wasn't alive but the deaths that made me sad were Buddy Holly and Elvis Presley. Their deaths made me sad after reading their stories. Aaliyah Houghton too! :(

    I don't think I've ever been 'upset' by a celeb's death. Shocked, definitely, sad, maybe.
    Those that went too young -
    Diana (although the outpouring of 'grief' afterwards was waaaay OTT).
    Amy W. (sad because so inevitable, and avoidable).
    Steve Irwin.
    Steve McQueen - I'm a bit too young, but I remember my Mum being shocked by his passing.
    Freddie M.
    Heath L. & River Phoenix.
    Bobby Robson & Roy Castle - my Dad was affected by these two - really nice guys too.
    Natasha Richardson - to die from falling over, now that was a shock, really sad.
    Michael Hutchence because of the way he died, and then Paula Yates - because she couldn't live without him. I felt so sorry for Bob Geldoff trying to pick up the pieces.

    John Lennon/ Jimi Hendrix/ Keith Moon / Amy Winehouse, most of them fairly predictable, but still heartbreaking, they had so much more they could have given us..

    I just watched Anna Nicole on Lifetime, and I think that was sad.
