  The second coming is going to occur somewhere between the first call and the last call in the pub strip in Cardiff? How will it be possible to distinguish between the newly arisen from the dead (responding to the judgment call) and the dead drunk (despondent and disorderly after the last call)? I figure zombies and the sloppy drunk bear some similarities.

  Merry Christmas! (it’s Boxing Day here. I had a great Christmas, thanks! Thanks for the Christmas treat too, kerry!).

  Jesus isn’t missing. He’s busy turning Perrier into Champagne for the New Year.

    Turning grass into pies…or is that touching on a sacred cow?

    I think you can touch cows all you want, you just can’t eat them.

  Who’s to say Jesus didn’t come back as that ragdoll? And he isn’t “missing.” The catholics will find him eventually floating in a bucket of, well, it used to be water.

  Well there is nothing leaner than a lean cuisine that is no longer there. Just imagine all the pounds that will melt from your ass like snow on a warm spring day while you’re eating that invisable lean cuisine. The theif was just trying to do you and your ass a favour. Enough of this cup half empty attitude.

    Are you talking about the ultimate “diet Christ?”
    What kind of communion do they do at your church? I mean, the wafers we used to use were not terribly filling. You guys use pot roast or something?

  They weren’t stealing him, they were just saving him for the right time.

  Ain’t that the truth. I almost feel bad for the thieves — what do they do to top this? Once you’ve stolen the Christ child, you’ve pretty much maxed out your villainy meter.

  And worst of all… they know He loves them anyway.

    I suppose it depends what they do with the baby. If they film it, they’re certain to burn.

  I have a good friend who used to manage a Lenox store, (upscale china and accessories) and it was amazing how the baby jesuses ( jesusi?) were nearly ALWAYS stolen from the display nativity sets they had in the store. I guess its an epidemic..

    I think it’s spelled “L-i-n-u-x” and they probably meant to replace the baby Jesus with a penguin.

  Somewhere in the world, there is an Indiana Jones type warehouse filled to the ceiling with stolen baby Jesus’ and missing dryer socks – that’s what ‘the enemies’ do.

  I suspect a common element in this rash of thefts – those who have a grudge against the nativity scene Jesus. My prime suspects would be the poor shmoes in every nativity scene with a goat attached to their leg…I’d be pissed too.

    I love the fact that many baby Jesus statues/dolls now have GPS. I’m imagining the Speed/Lethal Weapon/Whatever the modern day equivalent is, as a handsome generic hero races against time to return the baby Jesus before it becomes the 26th in every single country in the world. It would be similar to that NASA tracking Santa site as the children, adults and wicked terrorists of the world (the obvious suspects!) sit glued to their computers, televisions, iphones etc., wondering whether the handsome generic hero will win the race against time and make all right with the world again.

  I’d get Captain Jack Harkness on to this missing BJ case. If anyone could find the BJ in Cardiff, it would be him. El Horno would probably be the first place he’d look.

  That is unless the BJ is in the Tardis, in which case it will be back by Easter.

  Those Christians get awfully upset over dolls representing their savior being stolen.
  It’s almost as if they think they owned the REAL Baby Jesus.

  Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but why not just buy a new one, and next time bolt the little bastard into place?

    C’mon, the sign does’t read as very upset writing. In fact, these folks seem to taking things pretty much in stride, keeping in the PAN tradition of postings that are neither Passive, Aggressive nor Notes.

    Speaking in broader terms, of course.

    I think we’ve seen enough stolen Baby J notes the substantiate my comment.

    I take the position that posting a sign stating an article of ones faith is, in fact, passive aggressive.

    That would be voodoo, CB. Pins driven into the skin, nails run through the palms of the hands, fingernails cut off for future curses, locks of hair kept for love potions…

    Talking of bolts, the baby Jesus might have done a bolter. Bolt him before he bolts you. I like your thinking…God’s pretty handy with the bolts, too. Lightening and smiting go together, very, very frightening me.

  Jesus left of his own volition, and has left his mark on seven potato chips, twelve birthmarks upon the body of twelve different men, and has also appeared in three Wal-Marts in the form of a roll of wrapping paper.
  He’ll be back around January 12th.

    Untrue, apparently. You can see that Mary is worshipping a sacred cow above, but I think he’s definitely bolted from the stall.

    … and it’s neck and neck and no, I don’t quite believe it, but it is… a mule is in the race and it’s coming along the inside run and look at that mule go! Jesus… I don’t want to bray, but I never thought a donkey had it in him. But here comes Arabian Knight on the outside, and the donkey and Knight are neck and neck… and…oh Lord, I cannot believe my eyes… baby Jesus is clinging, I repeat, clinging, to the mane of the donkey…He’s away in the mane, ja, ja… I’ve never seen anything quite like it.

    But who’s riding the Arabian Knight? Let me get out the binoculars… yes, I do believe it is Richard Burton, and I do believe he’s nursing some kind of hangover from the way he’s sliding all over that horse… Did Mary nurse baby Jesus? It’s worth thinking about… anyway, Burton is guzzling down a can of Guinness, mother’s milk to some, and Yes! oh, yes! … he’s slipped off the horse and is hanging by one leg from the stirrup… bouncing along the track, I wonder how he’ll get out of this one?… and in the meantime, the donkey was slowing, looking a bit worn out, but the turf has parted… yes, parted!, I am rubbing my eyes here in disbelief too, but I’m only calling it as I see it, the part has created a clear path for the baby Jesus, the donkey and the flood of Nazarenes who have all of a sudden crowded the field. But, wait! Richard Burton has somehow righted himself, and is heard to be shouting “I ain’t afeared of nobody, not even you Virginia!”

    Jesus and the donkey and the Arabian Knight are neck and neck, ear and ear… but, …what is the baby Jesus doing? He’s got his hand up to his face, and I can’t see clearly, but I do believe he’s twisting his nose from his face! Oh, to be made of detachable body parts, and he’s climbing onto the mule’s head… Let’s see you do that Burton!… and he’s holding his hand out, and and his nose is wedged firmly on his extended thumb! The mule is steadfast. The knight is faster, but Jesus is forthright. Not only that! But he’s fishing for men. Out comes the fishing rod, and Oh yes! He’s snagged one of the Nazarenes who is pulling, I say just pulling baby Jesus and the mule over the finish line. Burton crushes his can and throws it onto the track. All the other horses stumble, and they’re down for the count! Except for the tortoise.

    My, what a race. Burton is crying, but he’s no slouch, but Jesus is just that fraction ahead. I’m looking at the replay now, it’s hard to distinguish, but yes, I can clearly see the paint peeling from his proboscis. By a nose, baby Jesus has won by a nose! The Nazarenes have gone crazy and are throwing palm leaves into the air…the crowd looks confused, except for three wise men along the sidelines looking kind of elated. And here is the surprise finisher. Yes, there goes the tortoise…plod, plod, plod, over the finish line for third! The three wise men throw their tickets in the air, and then scramble to pick them up again… guess three lucky bastards had the trifecta.

    Richard Burton slouches off mumbling something about how he wishes he were Richard Harris and had the power of Dumbledore to match the baby Jesus, and how the Irish have all the luck, and how someone left the cake out in the rain. The mule is braying its victory and the Arabian Knight surely has one thousand and one tales to tell. What a day. What a track. What a race…From generation to generation, they’ll begetting around to telling this story. From father to son, from mother to daughter …

    Oh, hold on, the riot squad is swarming all over the place… they have the three wise men in cuffs…they’re using a GPS system to track down the Baby Jesus to return him to his rightful owners, and Burton is doing a little dance before falling down dead drunk in the middle of the field. Danny Glover kicks him. WTF? Professional jealousy?

    Baby Jesus gives the riot squad the finger, quite literally, but he’s too small, and they are too powerful. They have swaddled him, and Burton has been disqualified for being disorderly after Glover had a quiet word with one of the officials! The tortoise wins the race…though the hare is objecting… As always, sure and steady will beat the bolter from the stable, and I see Glover counting out a nice wad of money. Maybe it is the reward for assisting and promoting the return of the baby Jesus to his Righteous and rightful place. Amen. What a day it’s been folks, What a day.
