To be a tiny bit rude, what's the difference between what motivated Mother Theresa and the martyrs and what motivated the followers of Jim Jones to drink their koolaid, or the followers of David Koresh to offer up their daughters to him as soon as they came of age? Or the followers of L. Ron Hubbard, who appear to have faith in the teachings of a guy who, before he started his religion, said starting a religion was the way to get really rich. Belief and faith are fine things, if they help people live better lives. That a lot of people believe in something doesn't make it true, though.
