Nativity scene in my house!

RE: Nativity scene in my house!
Glue the figures down, or secure them in a way.

The stupid part is that the perpetrators find it easy, be it by others letting them do what they want or the items being easy to remove.

Have you considered putting up a big sacrilegious framed poster and bolting it heavily to the wall?

I wish I could have back the hours I lost because I was forced to attend church! I would much rather have been playing ball at the schoolyard.

When I was 10 or so my mother used to send me off to church while she stayed home (yeah, great example she set...). One day I was listening to the sermon when I turned around and noticed a friend of mine sitting a few rows back. He motioned for me to come sit with him. I got up and moved to his row, taking up a seat next to my buddy. (I must mention that I moved quickly and quietly.) After the service I was leaving the church and the priest was at the door greeting people as they left. As I walked past I was ready to cheerfully say, "Good morning, Father!". The priest never gave me a chance as he glowered at me and snapped, "You're the one who got up and moved around during the service!". He then proceeded to give me a ration of shit for changing my seat.

Yeah, he really made me want to come back!

Prick.

Yeah, if I had my way she wouldn't put the stupid thing up in the first place, but she looks at it as a way to connect with her late father.

Well, yeah, I could see where that would be a problem.

I was thinking of something like this. It would be fun to glue the figures down and then watch the twits try to remove them. They would undoubtedly be surprised and they would most likely knock down parts of the scene when they tried to pick up the baseball figures. This would cause the perpetrator embarrassment and I could smile and say, "Gee, guess you shouldn't be touching stuff in other people's houses, huh?"

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

You could put a small paper over jesus that says a name of these in this comic
[Image: 470.jpg]
make a lot of them and every time they take one and turn their backs put another Tongue

Or at least ask them to not throw it into the garbage and just put it at the side
