Should the church support the protesters at St Pauls'?

You might like to take a look at this link since it will give you access to a number of views.
My own view is that the church should support the protesters since we need leadership at this time in history and unlike the prevailing political view that 'money' is going to fix things for us, we need to recognise that the big challenge for democracy now is 'Can it challenge the Corporations?'
Decades ago the cry was to challenge the landed gentry but over the last few decades we have seen the emergence of a rich elite that are so powerful that we have to bail them out when they get into trouble....
I am not at all sure that Jesus would approve..
