ANJEZE GONXHE BOJAXHIU (aka Mother Teresa, or Saint Teresa of Calcutta)
Dubbed “Hell’s Angel” by Christopher Hitchens in his essay The Missionary Position: Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice, Mother Teresa believed that the sick must “suffer like Christ on the cross". Her clinics received millions of dollars in donations, but the facilities were criticised for lacking medical care, systematic diagnosis, necessary nutrition, and insufficient analgesics for those in pain. According to her critics, the money would have been sufficient to transform the health of the poor, and would have provided advanced palliative care for the many thousands of people who, in fulfilment of Anjeze’s ultimate goal, were instead “united in Glory with their Creator”. Among many awards and prizes, she received a Nobel Peace Prize in 1979, was beatified in 2003, and canonised in 2016.
