Viscous heathens.

Vandals smash nativity scenes, abduct baby Jesus in PA, TN, NH

Vandals are targeting nativity scenes across the country, most recently with thrashed figurines in Pennsylvania and reports of baby Jesus abductions in Tennessee and New Hampshire.

Rolland Price Jr., secretary for The Church of the Holy Apostles in Saint Clair, Pennsylvania, told the Republican Herald it appeared someone attempted to get into the church last Thursday night and decided to kick over a nativity scene in the front yard when they found the door locked.

Baker spent three days installing the nativity scene and Christmas light display just days before someone smashed the ceramic Joseph to smithereens, snapped off angel wings and stomped a hole in a defenseless lamb figurine.

Oh God, NOT baby Jesus!

He should be back in 3 days time, no worries!

I think they should replace with the Grinch for the time being.

Or Maybe a Holiday Ham, eh, eh, eh?

Omg, people don't hate Christmas. Instead, teenagers are jackasses and commit acts of vandalism.

There is no war on Christmas.

Happy Holidays.

Before this becomes a Fox News "war on Christmas" deal I can tell you what it is and it's a bunch of idiot teenagers thinking that they're super cool and that it's sooooo funny to mess up a nativity scene, I mean come on we all know it's totally super cool and makes them sooo awesome for doing it.

This has nothing to do with anti-Christmas or anything so those who think it is need to relax, just a bunch of berks who have to much time to waste and so little an imagination that they can't think of something else to do but I can promise this time tomorrow it'll be headline news.

This happens every year, all over the country... Just saying.

Are you sure it isn't the forces of Satan, or maybe Santa, sick of having to share to spotlight.

Trve Kult Black Metal. Horns up, errbody.

What if, Santa is Satan? Just gotta move some letters around and BAM!!!!

God damn Satan at it again!

Dear Lord baby Jesus, lyin' there in your ghost manger, just lookin' at your Baby Einstein developmental videos, learnin' 'bout shapes and colors. I would like to thank you for bringin' me and my mama together, and also that my kids no longer sound like retarded gang-bangers.

Bored kids doing dumb things. Just like the one's that called in a bomb threat to Walmart yesterday in my small town and the others that did it this morning.

Not much different than what happens around here on the religion forums.

From vandalizing Jesus's teachings, taking him out context.
To taking him out of the Nativity by removing him from history.

While some stash him away and make their own personal custom Jesus to mock or make them feel better.

Part of me wants to get all upset and fight. But...

"Forgive them Father they know not what they do." - Jesus

All these replies and no one has blamed the Radical Muslims.

Good job and well done everyone.

Maybe it's a form of unconscious sophistication.

but, no your right, we all just hate christmas, all those christmas songs, all those bright lights, and worst of all those poor, poor little christmas trees with all those pretty wrapped packages underneath.
worst of all is that big feast that adds a few more pounds onto our waist line!!
it should be banned as a danger to our health!!!

Come one man. Like they say in the other posts. Don't worry about it. It is okay to do these things. Why do Christians get all upset when other people think it's okay that this stuff happens to them. It is not like they are mocked or ridiculed by people who don't think it is okay to do so to any other certain group. I mean why make a big deal about something, that others think it is okay to do. It happens every year, like someone replied. Nothing to see here.

Yeah, just a bunch of dumbass teens.

Everyone has done that growing up. Right?

Its never ok to damage/steal other peoples property......for any reason.
Funny how quick people are to say"Its no big deal"....... when it is not their stuff getting ripped off or broken.

Love to see your list of stuff that is ok to steal from you..... had my eye on that nice lawn furniture on your patio, should I check with someone it doesn't belong to if stealing it is ok with them...if its a big deal.... or is that different?
