The nativity scene didn't even frigging happen in the bible, let alone in real life.
It's only different because people give in to the threats and intimidation and the terrible cries of those pathetic words"Islamaphobia" and "racism". Is that the same reason why many "liberals" that I encounter criticise Christianity for "homophobia" but refuse to acknowledge the same for Islam? These kind of double standards only lead to resentment, I'm afraid. And I'm not convinced that the same rights are afforded to other religious minorities in Islamic countries.

This seems to be a fuss over nothing. Greggs must've known that it would cause a tiny stir and they've succeeded in selling more sausgage rolls. I live thousands of miles away from the nearest Greggs but I'm really sodding tempted to fly back for a couple.
