Geez publisher and co-founder Aiden Enns said crowds coming forward at an Occupy Wall Street demonstration were more faithful to the gospel than those coming forward at a Billy Graham evangelistic convention.

Of course he was being dramatic in his talk to a largely Christian audience at a college in Alberta called, “Your Richer When You Think.”
