The media has been awash with news on the camp outside St Paul's this week, and the question of "What would Jesus do?" has never been far away. The Guardian described St Pauls as a "whitened seplulchre" echoing Jesus' rebuke to the Pharisees. These are tough times, and the news that on average the directors of ftse listed companies received 50% income increases during the last year is nothing short of obsence. Mammon is alive and well, and it seems that St Paul's in the popular conciouseness has aligned itself with Mammon rather than the poor. Where ever you look, things don't feel or look right. Jesus would have wept according to Visual Theology. I am inclined to agree.
