The Missionary Position: Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice — When Charity Becomes Moral Laundering
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
Author: Christopher Hitchens
This episode explores The Missionary Position: Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice by Christopher Hitchens as a systems-level analysis of how media mythmaking, donor absolution, and religious authority influence behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or events, the episode shows why these systems persist — and how they connect to larger economic, political, and cultural structures.
