Nativity scene at UT features gay couple ( Texas )
KVUE News ^ | December 5, 2006 | CLARA TUMA

An unusual Nativity scene is drawing some curious looks from passers by on the UT campus.

The scene features a gay couple, Gary and Joseph, instead of Mary and Joseph, a terrorist as an angel and Lenin, Stalin and Marx as the three wise men.

The scene is built by the Young Conservatives of Texas, who say what they're calling an "ACLU nativity scene" includes positions taken by the American Civil Liberties Union.

"The idea is to bring attention to the ACLU and also to bring attention to the issue of taking down nativity scenes during the christmas season or trying to silence you know, the word Christ and the word Christmas," says Tony McDonald of the Young Conservatives of Texas.

I think someone posted this earlier, but I didn't read about 'Gary and Joseph'! Too funny.

Speaking of Polonium, I heard on the news that a restaurant in England named "Polonium" has been doing doorbusting business ever since the Russian spy murder mystery has taken over the front pages.

There's a silver lining to every cloud!

No, I think he's the horse out back.

Not sure which end is which, though.
