Christian love: love thy belly

A bunch of methodists were busy stuffing their faces while a man died at their door begging for help.
Mr Balmain said: "I really find it astonishing that nobody saw fit to take this man indoors, somewhere where it was warm, sit him down and give him basic care and attention."
He added: "What I am unable to understand is why this man didn't get the help he needed earlier. I was told about 60 people were in the methodist church."
The inquest heard that Mr Clarke banged on the door of the church saying he was cold and needed help only to be given a blanket, a sandwich and hot drink before the police were contacted.
