So apparently, various high street bankers are showing up at British cathedrals to give sermons on how they are not entirely evil. I am not making this up.
And the guy from Goldman delivered a quote that is almost too good to be true.
“The injunction of Jesus to love others as ourselves is an endorsement of self-interest,” Goldman’s Griffiths said Oct. 20, his voice echoing around the gold-mosaic walls of St. Paul’s Cathedral, whose 365-feet-high dome towers over the City, London’s financial district. “We have to tolerate the inequality as a way to achieving greater prosperity and opportunity for all.”
Wow. My head just exploded.

I remember from my Catholic school upbringing that Jesus was a HUGE proponent of self-interest. All those times he said, “Screw you, it’s all about me!”
