And this means what on the day of Christmas? A kangaroo with its joey in the pouch? This is a total mocking of the birth of Christ in my opinion.

Can you explain what you mean by "mocking?"
I can see it as ignoring Christmas, but mocking it? I don't get it.

Indifference is different from mocking.

Actually, google has been changing the design of their logo for the past few days. This is the end result, just like a comic strip. The one before this, was showing the mother knitting the sweather, with the kid bouncing all over, and the father looking on. I would try not to read too much into it.

The two kangaroos are supposed to be Mary and Joseph with Jesus being the little kangaroo in the pouch.
But it's google; I'm not surprised.

What do kangaroos have to do with Christmas? Is this image to celebrate the birth of a joey into the 2 kangaroo's family? The last week they have been showing the 2 kangaroo's by themselves...and today the joey appears.
Today being the birth of Christ...I see this as their comparison...but what the hell does it have to do with ANYTHING? Google celebrates every single day out of the year for something...a birthday, an event, whatever....and here is the #1 most celebrated event in the world and the best they can do is to put kangaroos up...yeah cause Lord knows this is what December 25th is all about...kangaroos.

I don't have a clue as to what it means, but it looks innocent enough, IMHO.

I'm surprised they didn't use penguins. That seems to be the environmentally/politically correct animal this year.
Penguin movies in the theaters, "March of the Penguins" on the Hallmark Channel.
* (Next year's sequel will be "April of the Penguins" and they'll keep adding until they get one for each month)

I thought it was to signify that Christmas had gotten to Australia and that they would change it at the hours wore on to other countries.

It could be mocking, but on the other hand it does show a mother and a father and a baby -- if the figures were human than Google would be accused of promoting religion. This could be the closest thing to a holy family that our politically correct world might accept.
Wonder what Muslims would do if Google put up kangaroos dressed up in burkas on Ramadan?

It is completely insulting. That was the intent, explicitly.
