Satan, Charles Manson and Mother Theresa.

[McCamy Taylor]

Why did I choose these names to go together in a thread title? Because, apparently, DU is engaged in a game of "One of these things is not like the others, one of these things doesn't belong." As in the endless succession of threads about "Franken, Moore and Trump."

Step back a moment. Browse through the threads titles. What kind of subliminal messages are we trying to send?

1. I get your point, but please be aware that multiple articles have been written

that were very critical of some of Mother Theresa's actions. You might pick a different third person.

2. This is so.

All three are evil in their own way except one is fiction.

[Pope George Ringo II]

3. And I'm going to stand up for him

He starts off as kind of a Promethean knowledge-bringer, and then kills ten people while the other guy murders a few million--and half of those were in the Job caper. Heck, Luke Skywalker killed more than ten Stormtroopers, so I'll cut Satan some slack on that one.

Honestly, he's the good guy of the three named.

4. I suppose I'd agree with that last line.

Fiction is always safer than real people. I'll stand up for the fictional character in this case.

5. I was expecting the next part to be ...
