(CNSNews.com) – Figurines of President Barack Obama are being put in nativity scenes in shops in Naples, Italy for the Christmas season.
Craftsman Marco Ferrigno told Reuters on Nov. 7 that Obama’s reelection sparked the production.
"Every time a major event occurs we create a new figurine and today after Obama's victory, we have made a new figurine of Obama and will put him in our ideal nativity scene,” Ferrigno said.
Reuters reported that the shop keepers said bargain hunters could get a “big discount” on figurines of GOP candidate Mitt Romney.
Italian fans of Obama said his likeness in the nativity scenes is a portrayal of how important his role is in today's world, according to Reuters.
That’s what he’s doing to the entire country.
That word has gone the way of the other non-inclusive word "sin."
This really made me laugh!
What about the separation of church and state?
Didn’t John Lennon say that the beatles were bigger than Jesus?
If they put this Nativity scene on a public square in the USA I’ll bet they wouldn’t be forced to take it down.
Good idea, since Obama intends to see if America can be fed on two fish and a five loaves of bread.
The flag is upside down.
