Lego Baby Jesus only looks like He doesn't have arms because He is wrapped in swaddling clothes.

The Charlie Brown scene is particularly depressing. Lord's child or no...ten-year-olds should not be having babies.

Charles Schulz was a Christian. Maybe not a fundamentalist, but over the years, he worked many Judeo-Christian values into his strip. Come on! he's the guy who had Linus tell the Christmas story every few Decembers in the strip (or for that matter, had Linus and sometimes Snoopy quoting or referring to scripture).

I was going to say the same thing...if he was so secular why the speech from Linus about Jesus...just like the media to throw in he would hate it because its Christian...

OK, you guys, SOME of these are just cute, as in meant-for- children cute. Where's your spirit of innocense? Leggos, marshmallows, chicken, ducks, Charlie Brown...it's all for kids. Don't knock it. I don't think God is insulted.
Some of the others - well, that's another story...

Have you not seen Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown? They do the nativity as a part of that. So it's not far fetched.

Honestly, I don't find any of these as titled. I seriously hate every last one of the people who post these things and all they do is hate and be judgmental. I honestly find most of these funny, the only one I agree with them on if the whole ACLU bull crap they're trying to pull. But in any event, they don't need to title the entire article "19 Depressing, Crazy and Downright Awful Nativity Scenes" It makes no sense to me why people bitch and complain about people trying to be creative (ACLU not withstanding)

I don't think that most of these are in bad taste at all. It kind of seems like the author just found some non-traditional nativity scenes on Google and posted them here as if they were the craziest things ever. I think some of these are pretty neat.

I guess it's a good thing they didn't snap the picture of the Canine Nativity while Baby Jesus was licking himself....

These are actually offensive to me. Jesus is Lord of all, and this is disrespectful. I see nothing nice or funny about any of them.

Sexualized nativity scene? What are those people talking about! I mean maybe the clothing is suggestive but it covers her (its a DUMMY!) and mary can't hold her baby in her lap? Those grandmas have nothing better to do. They have a point about comercializing the religious scene with the bags and clothes. BUT!! isnt that what christmas is all about, presents, shopping, money,maybe family, its definitly not about accurately portraying the message of the bible.

Depressing, crazy and downright awful? LOL My meerkat nativities are being displayed in lots of homes across the world this year! So - many thanks for the feature, have a Meerkatty Christmas. To those who have chosen to be offended, surely your faith is big enough to cope? I certainly don't intend to offend, it's just a bit of fun - and I was tickled pink when one of my buyers turned out to be a pastor!

My wife loves collecting nativities. We also got a pug this year. So I seriously considered getting this pug nativity: http://cgi.ebay.com/COLLECTIBLE--PUG-FIGURINE-NATIVITY-SET--12-pc-SET!_W0QQitemZ140368021011QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20091217?IMSfp=TL091217214002r8544
Cute, but yeah, this is getting out of hand! Glad I refrained.

But baby Jesus gets eaten every day at communion. Why should a tastier version be bad :)

Schulz was a complicated man. He actually taught Sunday School classes for years at his church, teaching the humanist values and parables to be found in the bible; he also wrote the famous Peanuts Christmas special which extols the true value of Christmas being the birth of Jesus Christ--yet Schulz' cartoon work exemplifies attempting goodness in a difficult world and mostly refuses to proseletise any specific religious belief. So yes, Schulz manages to be both a Secular Humanist and a Christian, who would probably not look entirely favorably on that nativity scene. Research is important!

Wow! For those who like to complain about the nativity scenes and then add cursing, Jesus probably isn't proud of your defense. The Christmas that we celebrate wasn't the actual time of Jesus' birth. He was most likely born in March. We celebrate in December because as Christianity spread it would adopt pagan celebrations and make them "Christian" in order to get more converts. If you truly find this offensive (and I do find some of them offensive, while some of these are cute for kids, the half naked people withstanding) give up celebrating the economics of Christmas and be the family on the block that makes it all about Christ. Give to the less fortunate, spend time with the homeless, visit those in prison. It is time for Christians in America to take a look at ourselves and ask if we truly celebrate Christmas, do we live as Christ would. Or do we find ourselves cussing at the bad driver, talking about the people in our church, being gluttons. Remember "For ALL have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God". We must return to Christ and look at ourselves before we point at people who don't understand. How many times does Christ warn us that what we hold dear the world sees as foolishness?
