February 2010: Why would anyone oppose a Mother Theresa stamp?

We learned that the US Post Office will issue a Mother Theresa stamp this year. (USPS)

That’s great!

Is there a more beautiful historical figure than Mother Theresa?

Nevertheless, some people objected to the new issue. (Atheist Group Blasts Postal Service for Mother Teresa Stamp)

I guess that some people are just a bit too tense about this “separation of church and state” stuff.

It’s true that Mother Theresa was a nun and a very religious woman.

It’s also a fact that she opposed abortion. (My guess is that this is what drives the left crazy!)

At the same time, she was a woman who fought poverty head on!

What government program has matched Mother Theresa’s work of love and compassion?

The US Post Office is not promoting religion with this special issue. Instead, it is remembering one of the greatest citizens of the 20th century.

Some people need to chill out, get some fresh air and appreciate Mother Theresa’s wonderful contributions to mankind!
