A nativity scene featuring a dark-skinned Jesus, Mary and Joseph that has gone on display in a Verona courthouse has created heated debate in a city with strong links to Italy’s anti-immigration Northern League party.Holy crap! Black Jesus? First the English mass and now this? What's next? Gay bishops?
Oh. Well, it's not like the Episcopalians are a real church or anything. We hear they don't even talk in tongues.
The nativity’s appearance coincides with the League’s controversial operation “White Christmas,” a two-month sweep ending on Christmas Day to ferret out foreigners without proper permits in Coccaglio, a small League-led town east of Milan.Heh. Get it? "White Christmas" because all you darkies need to get to gettin'. But here's our question: We're pretty sure Jesus wasn't an Italian citizen, so if he showed up in your town would you be all like 'let's see the green card there Abdul. Son of god don't cut no ice in this town'?
The Christmas scene — featuring a dark-skinned baby Jesus dressed in a red shirt and lying in a manger — was the idea of Mario Giulio Schinaia, the chief Public Prosecutor in Verona.Red shirt? Well, there's your problem Mario. Jesus would never be an A C Milan fan.
“It is a useless act of provocation, just like the suggestion not to have a nativity scene at all, in order not to offend Muslims,” Northern League farm minister Luca Zaia told one paper, referring to proposals in recent years that town halls and stores should no longer sponsor Christmas scenes.Darn straight Luca. And we'd just like to add it's no coincidence that Muslims are brown. Sahria law anyone?
The Northern League is an ally of conservative Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. League proposals have ranged from separate buses and trains for immigrants to banning new mosques and forbidding the serving of Chinese food and kebabs in towns under its control.Dim sum today, reeducation camps tomorrow.
“There shouldn’t be a white or black Christmas, only a merry Christmas for everyone, of every skin colour, ethnic background and nationality.”Couldn't agree more. Just make it mandatory for those kebab eating, Chinee speaking ethnics who don't celebrate the birth of the one and only true white son of the true white god amen.
Who do you want hearing your prayers?

Who told the Italians they were White? That's what I wanna know.
Just saying. I mean by WASP standards that is. LOL.
What is it about the Holiday Seasons--that bring out the sickest aspects of World Culture? Of Hubris and Stupidity? Makes you wish Santa was actually out there right now making a list of people to receive coal in their stockings.
Remember when Madonna made that video with the Black Jesus? Lots of Underwear in knots over that one too.
All I can figure out is that the Prime Minister got slammed in the face with a cathedral and lost teeth and ended up with a broken nose? For no reason at all? We all kind of doubt that.
For a Prime Minister whose popularity is sinking rapidly do to loving up the teens and dumping his wife and a ton of other nasty , corrupt things, it was a shame they labeled the attacker "disturbed".
Seems to me, he had it right and the fact that the coward "leader" is still in the hospital "hiding out" proves the point.
I wonder if he ever "attacked" anybody and I wonder if they ever had the luxury to go to the hospital and stay for four days, may we all add.
Merry Christmas to real Italians who believe in something.
Berlusconi is a big boy with a big appetite. Perhaps that is precisely why someone had the courage to shut his face up, if only for four days. Don't worry.
Mr. Italy , himself, will be back for more. As long as there is money to grab and young girls to deflower and sleazy politicians to support him with their winks, Italy will always smell like a big spicy salami and have the sole reputation of "stuffed meat".
What an utter embarassment and lack of "religious refinement" that Ratzinger, "our " Mr. Vatican, the Pope, supports him as well .
And "all the way".
You know for a guy who talks "Hell" , non-stop, like Pope Ratzinger,he is constantly forcing African Nations into an even more tortuous existence on earth and for what?
In order to avoid a condom?
In order to send more babies into starvation?
In order to spread HIV to the most remote and poor and vulnerable and innocent of continents because they should all want to "die" to go to "Heaven"?
How about Pope Ratzinger and Berlusconi both pull their billions of dollars together and stop promoting sexism, corruption and abusing all their powers?
I have no idea why the latter isn't already in jail and I have no idea why Popes like Ratzinger even exist. Unless, of course, it is to accumulate even more billions and more power under the guise of "Sir Holiness".
Ha ha! I was going to say it, but Seeing Eye Chick beat me to it!
"Who told the Italians they were White?"!!!
:-)
Stumbled across your blog and really like it.

You know all the Popes dress in swank silks and jewels and surround themselves in tons of art just begging to all be sold to assist the poor.
So, why haven't any of them done it?
Also, they have always kept the Nuns under their feet, literally, for "free labor" of the finest. Isn't that, too, like slavery?
All extreme religions profess the very same agenda. That being, ultimately, the women must all have their tongues cut off ( as they are the true teachers) and the men must continue, and fervently, to fornicate.
So, that being screamed, loud and clear, is the Taliban any different from the extreme "teachings" of Catholicism, that being "the map "Ratzinger draws?
The New York Times had another article the other day stating, once again, that if women were "allowed" to be as involved as the males in all religions, there would be a huge reduction in "terrorism".
Repression stifles thoughts and ambitions and creativity and also the progression of the "oneness" of the human race.
These small town dictators are quite aware that in the "real world" they are not needed. Indeed, not wanted. And, of course, this makes their billions and their powers and their superficial necessity, extinct.
