I love Nativity Scenes

 
Even unusual ones. But I guess not everyone does. The pop culture Nativity at Madame Tussaud's has actually been attacked.

I don't know if God would consider this a good thing or not. On the one hand, it was statues of "Posh and Becks," who really aren't renowned for their piety or repentance. On the other hand, they were supposed to represent the Virgin Mary and Joseph. Why are they any less suitable as raw material than the big hunk of marble that became Michelangelo's Pieta?

Speaking of Nativity Scenes, here is a lovely page just full of gift ideas for the person on your list who collects them. Steer clear of the one on this page. Not only are the 20 figures life size, making it way too large to display anywhere (I don't even know where we'll put the tree!) but it's also $29,185.00 which means it cost more than our wedding and all of the children put together...
