  30 years later, after some very public mental health struggles. She was a humanitarian with a big heart and a lot of courage. Don’t try a take away from a dead woman’s accomplishments because of personal choices toward the end of her life.

    Oh no judging a person by… their actions.

    She died a hypocrite.

      She studied theology and was the victim of institutional abuse, she was better educated on this than most and sought out a higher purpose. I can’t denigrate her for that. I’m an atheist but I won’t judge someone who sought refuge from an abusive and horrible past.

    Jesus was a hippy, who whipped scammers at a temple. Mohommed raped a nine year old and was a warlord.

        They still worship him, hell they still add “Peace be unto him” after his name, a man who ordered murders.

    I’m not interested in a game of whataboutism.

    She willingly joined a cult that worships a pedophile after calling out a cult for shielding pedophiles from justice.

    That’s as straight forward and in context as it gets.

      A religion with over a billion followers is not a cult.

        All religions are cults.

        By the way are you counting all the different sects as a singular group? In some places the cultists would kill you for that.
