Should we bash our bishops
Christians around the world gather each Christmas to worship the “poor baby Jesus” asleep in the manger with no crib for his bed.
But the Bishops look inside that manger, and they do not see a poor baby at all.
They see a baby born into wealth because the kings visiting him have given him gold, frankincense and myrrh. They see a messiah with so much money that he needs an accountant to track his wealth. They see a saviour who wore clothes so expensive that the Roman soldiers who crucified him gambled with each other to own them after his death.
God bless the Bishops of England
