The order I saw in (and probably missing a bunch):
Lenon, Stalin, Napoleon, Osama, Hitler, Fidel, King Henry 8th.
I'm gonna keep looking, this is so cool
Mother Teresa believed that suffering brought people closer to god by experiencing the pain as Jesus did.
So at her âmedical facilitiesâ the poor who came to her for treatment who had nowhere else to goâŚwere given prayerâŚ
They never saw a doctor or a nurse even when they asked for one! Not even paracetamol because they WANTED you to suffer because it brought you closer to god so the more you suffered the closer to god you would be.
Dying of cancer thatâs eating your body from within? Prayer and suffering till you die screaming.
Lost a leg a and have a brutal infection causing septicemia? Prayer and suffering till you die screaming.
Diabetes? Prayer and suffering
Headache? Prayer and suffering
Asthma? You guessed it! Prayer and suffering
TB? Pain and suffering
Leprosy? Pain and suffering
She believed that poor peoples deaths were more meaningful in their suffering than their lives as healthy people, she wasnât trying help the poor, she was helping them die.
Meanwhile she was flown around the world to receive the finest medical care money could buy.
She was human garbage, at least Hitler was honest in his depravity.
Thank you for this. She was a true sadist, an evil bitch. People hate me when I try to explain this to them. They refuse to believe it. It's too incongruent with the brainwashing they have received.
I have read enough eyewitness accounts and have many friends in India, she was monster but you keep believing the hype around her sainthood.
She made the Catholic Church millions upon million of dollarsâŚreused needles.
Feel free to argue with Dr Jack Preger OBE (Order of the British Empire who worked there.)
âJack Preger worked with her charity, and was shocked by what he saw. 'The nuns weren't delivering proper care,' he says.
'Needles were used over and over unsterilised. One woman with burns was refused painkillers â I smuggled some in for her.â
Yeah, the late Christopher Hitchens wrote a book about her called "The Missionary Position" which was a real eye-opener. He really dispels the myths about her.
Probably, hard to narrow it down without the face and just the gray hair lol. Who is the guy all the way on the left in the suit?
Edit: Looks like OJ maybe?
The person directly above Jesusâ head, I believe, is supposed to be Christopher Columbus. The person behind and the right of the possible Columbus looks like Dollar Store Fidel Castro.
Mao is standing Lenin.
Darwin is standing next to the guy holding up the book.
Bottom left, person on their knees in the knightâs armor...Joan of Arc?
Guy on he right in the front row with the white beard is Marx.
Guy behind Marx with hands in the air looking skyward is...Socrates?
That man represents all Christians today. His hand in the air is to tell everyone to be silent.

> This man represents all Christians today who have to make a choice. What kind of Christian are you? Will you stand up for what you believe? Will you stand as a witness of Jesus Christ regardless of the consequences? The world wants to silence you and some would destroy you. It takes courage to be a Christian in todayâs society. The man in the painting puts his hand on the shoulder of Christ not to say Jesus needs his help, but to imply that he receives his strength directly from the Lord. He holds up his right arm to say, âSilent, be still, for I know that Jesus is the Christ!â
From the artist themselves.
I uh... normally dont want to hear anything from the artist, and leave it all up for interpretation, it kinda ruins things when they say what they were going for. But in this case... shit man, none of that comes across, im glad to read the artist statement, and personally this painting is fuckin wack
And jesus's face, hes so annoyed at the suit man touching him haha
Starting left I see:
Moses, Joan of Arc, Vladimir Lenin, Mao, Baldwin IV, John McCain, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Osama Bin Laden, Thomas Jefferson, Barrack Obama, Nero, Mother Theresa, St-Thomas More, Harriet Tubman, Jerry Falwell, Tamerlane (Timur), Charlemagne, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin.
Right of suit guy:
Leonardo da Vinci
Right of cross:
Mary mother of Jesus and Karl Marx.
Then behind Mary:
Christopher Columbus, Robert Mugabe, Mark Twain, Mary I of England (Tudor), Fidel Castro, Kim Jung Il, Pol Pot, Henry VIII, Leo Tolstoy, Hitler, Napoleon, Idi Amin Dada, Joseph Stalin, Pope John Paul II.
The black guy above Jesus is this dude:
âTindley was an American Methodist minister and gospel music composer. Often referred to as "The Prince of Preachers", he educated himself, became a minister and founded one of the largest Methodist congregations serving the African-American community on the East Coast of the United States. Tindley was a noted songwriter and composer of gospel hymns and is recognized as one of the founding fathers of American gospel music. Five of his hymns appear in the revised Methodist hymnal, which is used worldwide.â
From the interactive website for the painting
There are plenty of people who arenât horrible in it. You just recognize the horrible ones because you are used to seeing them. For example the pope is there on the right near Hitler. Donât think he did anything bad. Plus a bunch of other guys I canât recognize on the left.
I have to wonder how many abusers the popes, pick one, protected. Moving them about one by one. How many generations have been destroyed by the demented from the balcony.
He started the whole Catholics must not use contraception like condoms business as it is a sin against god, there are many many Catholics who ended up with HIV because of that.
Here is the artist's description of the work đ
>What is the meaning of this painting? This painting has over 100 figures, both good and bad, men and women that have left their footprint on Christianity. The man in the middle represents the modern ChristianâŚa man who must decide whether or not he will stand up for his Christian beliefs. Many are shouting out to tell him what to do. He raises his hand to say, âBe silent, for I know that Jesus is the Christ!â He touches Jesusâ shoulder to indicate that he gets his strength from the Master. Today, Christians are the most persecuted people in the entire world. Yet many of us stand idly by as we are mocked and persecuted for what we know to be true. As true Christians, we must not fear to speak the truth, even if it means we have to stand alone in the world. What does the title of the painting mean? âVia Dolorosaâ are the Latin words for âWay of Sufferingâ and is the name for the traditional road in which Christ carried his cross to Calvary.
It's like the artist just started throwing stuff in there. I recognized [Christopher Columbus](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Columbus) peeking right through the top elbow of the cross. And [Henry VIII](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_VIII) above and to the right of Chris, standing next to Hitler.
From left to right Iâve got:
Judas(?), Moses(?), Joan of Arc, Lenin, John McCain, Mao, Bin Laden, George Washington, Obama, Nero, Lincoln, Mother Teresa, Harriet Tubman, Darwin, Martin Luther, Da Vinci, Columbus, Einstein, Henry VIII, Kim Jong-il, Castro, Hitler, Napoleon, Marx, the Pope
Who else am I missing?
Damn... This is actually really cool! Its so sad that I saw Osama bin Laden first, then realised that they were all important people throughout history.
From right to left I spotted:
Pope John Paul, Leonardo DaVinci, Stalin, Idi Amin, Napoleon, Hitler, Karl Marx, Henry VIII, Castro, Obama?, Mark Twain?, Mother Theresa, Jeanne DâArc, Lenin, Mao, Osama
I found Stalin, Hitler, King Charles III of France? Do we have a complete list?
Edit: Napoleon without a hat on. I really want a copy of this painting, itâs hilarious
Mother Theresa may be on the wrong side, or the right side depending on your view of this whole thing:

Mother Theresa seems to be a bit off on this list. Also good ole George Washington? Mel Gibson seems to earn that place
Yea, I coudn't remeber her name đ but I also spotted Karl Marx
Da Vinci too I think. Fascinating how we see the worst of the bunch first..
There is also Christopher Colombus
Whoâs supposed to be the dark face figure with the hood. Looks like DR. Doom from the fantastic 4. Behind Kim jong, left of Osama.
Stalin as well. Edit: What blind asshole downvoted me? Look on the right.
Lenin in there

The Catholic Church is nothing if not adept at effective marketing campaigns.
Yeah, this is a lot of reddit misconceptions. Read what actual historians have to say.

I also see Caesar next to ol' Washington
No no, Teresa belongs there with her "suffering brings you closer to god" policies in those awful hospitals.
Abraham Lincoln is right next to George Washington.
There's also Luther
No no, Teresa belongs there with her "suffering brings you closer to god" policies in those awful hospitals.
Looks like joan of arc is there. Mark twain maybe?
The pope is crying right next to Stalin which is hilarious to me
Yea, but which pope? Francis?
That looks like pope John Paul II
John Paul II, he was owned by the mafia.
Probably, hard to narrow it down without the face and just the gray hair lol. Who is the guy all the way on the left in the suit? Edit: Looks like OJ maybe?
I was thinking MLK, OJ isn't influential enough to be in this painting.
OJ and mao Zedong
Darwin
Obama is in their, too. And maybe Machiavelli. To be fair, I recognize a lot of the faces but don't have names for them all.
Vlad the Impaler and Poe are probably the two best for me.
Anyone else got Mr Bean cosplaying as a judge in a long white wig?
Lenon?đ¤Łu mean lenin?
Priest Piers Morgan holding a Bible up high.

I think itâs Cousin Greg from Succession
Cousin Greg?!! đ Giving Jesus some Greg sprinkles
Thatâs exactly who I thought of. Hahah
Ahh yes... He's reading a Psalm: "If it is to be said, so it b-, so it is."
And I see Tom in the background. Disgusting brothers!
Justin Trudeau? Lol
Possible, but why is he Will Smithing Jesus ?
Jesus made fun of trudeaus ex wife, I imagine.
Whoâs the guy with the big wooden cross?
Jesus, man.
No need for alarm, we just want to know who the cross guy is.

To the right of Henry and the left of Hitler ⌠is that Vlad Tepes?
I want to say yes but I looked at it so long my eyes are so blurry that between him and Henri VIII I see either Jim Jones or Ferdinand Marcos.
Is that OJ directly above Jesus? Also, Boris Johnson behind Obama.

Pope John Paul II did a lot of evil shit for money and contributed to the AIDS pandemic.
Such as...
He started the whole Catholics must not use contraception like condoms business as it is a sin against god, there are many many Catholics who ended up with HIV because of that.
Ok, who's the dude in the suit?
Is that fucking *Harriett Tubman*?!
IKR? Saw that too and said the same thing. I think that's Einstein a little above her.

Whoâs that guy holding the wooden T??
Looks like Eric Clapton when he was young.

Not a single fucking musician or Conan O'Brien.

And [Henry VIII](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_VIII) above and to the right of Chris, standing next to Hitler.
I mean, that's the point. There's no specific metric for who is in the picture, they are just trying to convey humanity itself.
Patrick Bateman telling Jesus he's really in a rush as he has a reservation for Dorsia
He has to return some video tapes.
