“In a nod to Pope Francis's humble style, alongside the figures from the story of Jesus's birth will be sculptures of ordinary people, including a man supporting an elderly person in need.”In other words, Francis and the Vatican are keeping their tree and Nativity Scene which they put on display, and you should keep and display yours. "Christmas is approaching: there will be lights, parties, Christmas trees and nativity scenes ... it's all a charade. The world continues to go to war. The world has not chosen a peaceful path," he said in a sermon. (Telegraph)
"There are wars today everywhere, and hate," he said after the worst terror attack in French history, the bombing of a Russian airliner, a double suicide bombing in Lebanon, and a series of other deadly strikes. "We should ask for the grace to weep for this world, which does not recognise the path to peace. To weep for those who live for war and have the cynicism to deny it," the Argentine pontiff said, adding: "God weeps, Jesus weeps". “He continued: "Those who make war are damned, they're delinquents. War can be 'justified' for many reasons. But when the whole world is at war, as it is today ... there is no justification."What kind of a pope would throw a shadow over the start of the annual Christmas season? A pope who lends his presence to the big lie that global warming and not Islamic terrorism is the world’s biggest threat; a pope whose church was paid $79 million by the Obama administration to force migrant invasion on unsuspecting American citizens.

Nor do protestants get a free ride in the bankrolled-by-Obama category with the Baptists taking government grants:From Dec 2012 to January 2014, Baptist Child & Family Services received $62,111,126 in federal grants from Health & Human Services for “Unaccompanied Alien Children Program”. (Liberty News, July 10. 2014) Christians getting ready to celebrate Advent should take heart, in spite of the pontiff’s patently false claim that “Christmas is a charade”. No matter how resolute or wayward, no pope could ever change the Birth of Jesus proclaimed by angels to the shepherds:" Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; 11for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord..” (Luke 2:10) Meanwhile, Pope Francis, as the song says, ‘It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas’.
