Italian priest includes mosque in nativity scene

Only God knows what this priest was thinking when he decided to include a mosque in a nativity scene. If the priest knew history, he would know that there were no mosques during the time of Christ's birth. Even if there were mosque back then, it has no place in a nativity scene.

Here's the greatest quote evah..."he may as well have included a suicide bomber wearing dynamite." Telegraph

The League, which has campaigned against the building of new mosques, bitterly attacked Father Prospero Bonzani as an "imbecile".

The miniature mosque, complete with a minaret, was included in the skyline of Bethlehem in the nativity scene at Father Bonzani's Our Lady of Providence church in the northern port of Genova.

The anti-immigration Northern League has called for a referendum to before any more mosques are built. Mario Borghezio, a Northern League MEP, called the priest an "imbecile" and said: "What on earth possessed him to put a mosque in a traditional Christmas nativity scene? I hope that the Church authorities in Genova will investigate this as a matter of urgency.''

He added: "What will this priest do when he says Mass during Ramadan? Ask us to turn towards Mecca? He may as well have included a suicide bomber wearing dynamite."
