TORONTO – Occupy Toronto protesters in St. James Park lashed out at the neighbouring church on Saturday, calling its officials un-Christian for vowing to stand behind a possible eviction.

Douglas Stoute, the rector of St. James Cathedral located on the west side of the park, said Thursday the church would back any decision made by Justice David Brown, who will decide Monday whether or not to uphold a city-issued eviction that would see the removal of occupiers from the park, including the church’s portion.

Up until now, St. James Cathedral has allowed a food station, several tents and a yurt to be on its portion of the park since occupiers set up camp in mid-October. And some demonstrators recently said they would flee to the church’s portion of land should police end up enforcing an eviction.

“They’re not Christians,” Occupy organizer Antonin Smith said angrily Saturday in reaction to Stout’s announcement, calling the support the church has given the park occupiers to this point “cosmetic.”

“I appreciate the support they’ve given us, I just thought it extended a lot further…I don’t appreciate being stabbed in the back,” said Smith, who had been in discussions with the church since the occupation of the park began.

“If Jesus were here, he’d be in a tent…Given his values, I imagine he’d be walking with as, along with Allah and Buddha,” he said.

I almost feel sorry for Douglas Stoute. There he is working for a denomination that has, for the most part not only abandoned Christianity, but forgotten what it is, being lectured by squatting miscreants on the nature of Christianity.

To compound the irony, the half baked things the occupiers are saying about Christianity and the reason for the Incarnation could just have easily fallen from the lips of a trendy Anglican bishop – or Dean Douglas Stoute.
