My husband posted this yesterday, and I thought it was worth mentioning on my blog as well, just so that those who don’t already read his blog will know about it.

He posted about Nick Griffins telling of the Nativity Story – check it out here. It’s well worth watching, if only to play spot the mistakes, or gain a better awareness of how clueless the Member of Parlament from the British National Party is! He tells the Nativity story like it’s a childs story, that can be added to, altered and taken away from without any impact.

According to Nick, the shepherds AND the “Kings/Wise men”  knew where to find Jesus because they followed the star, and they all met up in the stable, the same evening, soon after Jesus had been born!

Jesus’s gifts were gold, incense and myrrh. As said in Wikipedia – “The three gifts had a spiritual meaning : gold as a symbol of kingship on earth, frankincense (an incense) as a symbol of priestship, and myrrh (an embalming oil) as a symbol of death.” or on the non-spiritual means “Myrrh being commonly used as an anointing oil, frankincense as a perfume, and gold as a valuable.” Or if you are Nick it’s gold because and frankincense and myrrh because they are expensive.
