Hitchens on Mother Teresa's Beatification.

Less than Miraculous. In this article Hitchens talks about the highly unprofessional attitude of the media which reported about the "miracle" needed to be assiciated with Mother Teresa for her to be beatified. He says at the end:

"But our media, so crudely materialistic in so many ways, is also anti-materialistic at just the wrong moments."

I would disagree to this..the media reported what popular belief wanted. Not many people want to buy newspapers that question the religious establishments that one believes it.
