Coming over to someone else's house and altering what they have on display is illegal but the fact that it's your brother makes things complicated. Have you spoken with him about this? Does he deny he's the one who did it?
On a related note, I remember how my agnostic parents used to put a small (doll house sized) decorative display of the nativity scene as part of the Christmas decorating in the house. In retrospect, this seemed really curious to me. I kind of want to speak with the dead and ask them what they were thinking as they go through this ritual every year. Most likely, they would shrug and say it was just another Christmas decoration they never thought about (I never did). Ingrained habits are hard to break, even when you don't believe in their foundations anymore.
