{     Alternative Christmas     }    

Nativity. Small in-scale representation of the birth of Baby Jesus. Most of the world has never had one in their house for Christmas but maybe it is time the world starts.

In the year of Grace 2007 it would be time to update the concept, though, since the current one is a bit... ugly?

What about one of these three neu nativity sets for a change? According to how dissacratory are of this holy concept...

PLAYMOBIL NATIVITY
Would you like to buy a heavy dose of consumerism together with your Christmas? Instill in children the idea that Playmobil is holy and induce in them a life-worth addiction. OR get the set for ourself and rehinterpet 'history' (this seems a lot more fun!). What about swapping the baby for a dog like in the image below? This set sold out, which says a lot about how entertaining it can be and on top it looks great on your toy shelf!

RUBBER DUCKIES NATIVITY
Here the actors interpreting the holy family are rubber ducks. Great bathroom decoration, no? For those turned on by the idea of Jesus/Mary/Joseph seeing you naked. 'nuf said.

VEGGIE TALES NATIVITY
And as a guest star in the role of Baby Jesus... (drum roll)... a Potato! Hard to believe but true: every character of the holy story is impersonated by a vegetable: eggplants, tomatoes and even the suggestive ones like carrots, cucumbers, zucchini and what not have their onw space in the story... Strangely, Veggie Tales are actually bible stories for kids all intepreted by veggies, but regardless if you know of them or not, this nativity is absolutely hilarious!
