Spanish Protesters Depict Mary and Joseph as Jobless
By Robert Paul Reyes
"The Spanish 15-M protest movement staged a different Nativity in Madrid in which a jobless Joseph and Mary were evicted because they couldn't pay the mortgage.
The 15-M movement includes organizations advocating education for all, resident associations and an end to unfair evictions of mortgage defaulters." UPIThe cops broke up the unique Nativity scene, and arrested two protesters.
If the Nativity took place in an abandoned tenement building in New York City, Mary and Joseph would be arrested as vagrants and squatters. The baby Jesus would be placed in a foster home, and any angels lurking nearby would be raped or mugged.
Republicans would praise the police for arresting the whore Mary, and the hippie Joseph. They would donate WWJD diapers to Jesus, and they would express satisfaction that the gay-looking angels got beat up.
The baby Jesus would be so incensed that he would smite every Republican, and join the Occupy movement.
