Who needs Jesus when the new Messiah is in town ?

(And, of course, if his image were desecrated, it'd be called a "hate crime")

God’s greatest acts of mercy are to let people think they have gotten away with blasphemy. He gives them a lifetime to confess and repent. A quiet voice convicts them and calls them to the cross. If they never come, blam- hellfire and brimstone.

The Baby Jesus was stolen from the manger in front of my church on Staten Island a few years ago. The pastor was soooooooooooooo pissed. After the homily he said that he was not amused. The next day someone left it on the church steps. Now there is a plexiglass in front of the creche to prevent thievery.
