it was obama who instituted this policy. However, both the media and liberals worshiped obama and still do. Obama could barbar Q an infant baby on Sunday morning and eat it on the White House Law and the media along with his worshipers would compliment him on his table manners.

If I recall - churches that make political statements for/against candidates lose their non-profit status...

But I’m sure the FFRF will be all over this

The author is off base as are the fabricators of the separated Holy Family on the border.

It was not about the journey to Bethlehem to pay taxes that was the refugee story. It was the fight to Egypt to escape Herod who ordered all children under a certain age to be killed.

The flight of the Holy family to Egypt was a flight for true refugee status. There was no need to separate the family to determine if they were being trafficked or doing it themselves.

While in Egypt, they did not live
off the Egyptians, nor steal identity nor did they enter Egypt by lying.

Further, when the cause of their need for asylum passed they went home.

It’s not a nativity, and it’s not Jesus, Mary and Joseph. They were forced to go to Bethlehem, in spite of being poor, by the taxing authorities, to register to pay f*cking TAXES! Must have been a democrat administration.

Claremont United Methodist Church is (duh) located in the same city as Claremont Theological School, a Methodist seminary where the Bible is not held in high regard. So any thought of Methodist clergy in that geographical location being impressed with the actual words of the Bible will be met with a robust snore.

My scene has Mary The Blessed Virgin and an Angel until the 20th when I set out St Joseph and on the 24th baby Jesus lighted on the 25th along with the star. On Jan 6th the 12rh day of Christmas (Epiphany) the 3 kings.

Sickening. That didn’t happen then. They fled to Egypt together!

You need to reread... I said the “church claimns” the baby Jesus is two years old. You need to tell the church that not me.

person(s) who made this display mock God. The display is not biblical - the holy family did not sneak or illegally cross into egypt and dislay doesn’t address the real issue of the USA border.
