I have to say there is something to be said for Christmas traditions and the traditional Christmas Crèche. Last year's Vatican's Crèche was simply horrid. This year's although built of sand is much better. Certainly it is a work of art, but it won't last. It reminds me of the Gospel reading about houses built on sand which also reminds me of the three little pigs. But I digress.
These ideological crèches remind me of modern Christmas music sung in Church that no one has ever heard, even on the radio. Christmas demands traditional carols and crèches. You can quote me on that!
Nonetheless this sandy one is really, really nice. But as I said, it won't last!

What an improvement over last years gay display
Bee here:
Why is the figure of the Christ Child already there? Do they not know the meaning of symbolism? Aren't we in Advent?
And as the sculpture melts in the elements in the next few months...what then? What will be the message to the world as photos appear in major media around the world of the figures dissolving into heaps of sand?
Our own Church is doing this, and saying this. Well, not my Church...rather the apostate Church that is posing as the real one.
God bless (and stay strong).
