John Reynolds, chief executive of Reynolds Partners and chairman of the Anglican Church's Ethical Investment Advisory Group would surely be perturbed, if not appalled, to find the mischievous use Atzmon makes of his recent Observer article, claiming that Reynolds is calling for a "de-Judification" of the City.
Atzmon writes at the beginning his article: "John Reynolds ends his latest Observer commentary on the ethical implications of the current economic disaster with the following words:'Above all we need more individuals to make a stand. The Archbishops of Canterbury and York should go further and call for more Christians to work in the city.' One may wonder what Reynolds refers to when calling for more 'Christians to work in the City'. I tend to believe that more than just a few people out there do understand pretty well what Reynolds is suggesting. Reynolds, the chairman of the Ethical Investment Advisory Group protests against the non-ethical spirit that has been abundant in the City for more than a while. By pleading the Archbishops of Canterbury and York to send more Christians to the City he may try to suggest to us that our financial world must be spiritually de-Judified. I must admit that it took me by complete surprise to read such a suggestion in the politically correct Guardian. I wonder how it happened that such an idea filtered through."
The less attention is paid to this dreck the better. And to answer your question - no, this stuff is not a new low for Atzmon - he is scrapping the bottom of that gutter for too many years.
