This story is just so funny.  After saying that the church will compete with Wonga (a pay-day loan service in UK which charges very high interest rates) because they believe the high rates to be wrong, it turns out that the Church of England is an investor in the company!!

You certainly couldn't make it up.  Of course, what's even more unbelievable is that people will continue cling to false religion even when it does the most egregious things!

article says...

 

The Archbishop conceded that it was almost impossible for the Church to make an investment that was not somehow tainted.

He said: "If you exclude any contact with anything that directly or indirectly gets in any way bad, you can't do anything at all."
