It cracks me up with I see Santa Claus on one side of someone's yard and a Nativity scene on the other.

I agree, but here in the Northeast seeing a Nativity scene is sooooo rare that I'd settle for one on the back of Sant's sleigh!!

I would hope that Santa is on the left side of the walkway, signifying the self-centeredness of the liberals while the nativity scene is on the ritious right. :^)

Some people like to put out lots of decorations. Surely you aren't saying it is wrong for people to display Santa and also a Nativity?

Most cosmetic Christians think God is Santa Claus so it's rather fitting. Fitting still is the fact that those who gave us St. Nick are often more worried about how things look than how they really are....

I don't understand why you find it amusing that a Christian saint appears in the same yard as a nativity scene. Santa Claus is, after all, simply Saint Nicolas. His name has been translated into many languages through the centuries. Santa Claus in Dutch, I think.

Even better is when they have Santa Claus standing with the shepherds and magi adoring the baby Jesus.

Down in the liberal hotbet of Austin, TX, there's a neighborhood that always puts on some sort of eclectic display each year. One year, in the back of a resident's VW Microbus, there was a display of the surgeon Mary (barbie in a doctor outfit) and little baby cheeses (lot's of little pieces of cheese).
