Inflatable Blaspheme

Maybe you've seen it. A blow up, giant sized nativity scene with cartoonish Mary, Joseph and Christ Child with all the saccharine flavor of a Saturday morning TV show. It even plays Christmas songs that have nothing to do with Jesus. Ironically, it went up the day of Wayne's sermon on false teachers.

There ought to be a law...

I've considered getting a pellet gun and taking the monstrosity out. But tasteless as it is, it is a nativity scene, so I'm pretty sure that would be wrong.

I expressed my disgust to my youngest daughter, who shrugged and said, "Wal-Mart can only do so much."

Indeed.

But still, it shows that Christmas is about the birth of Christ, even if all of the songs don't sing about him. Did ya ever think about it that way? Hmmmmm. And even if it is cartoonish, it still portrays the birth of our precious Christ Jesus as the reason for the season.

The thing is, I've seen bad little cartoons on the outside of kid's bibles. Sooooo..... We'll see.
