People are weird, aren't they?

Richard Roeper in the Sun Times recently had a column about people who steal other people's baby Jesuses (Jesii?) out of their lawn nativitiy scenes. Okay, so it's not really Jesus, as he points out.But it's still stealing, and I think "thou shalt not steal" is multiplied in badness by a million if it is a plastic statue of The Lord that you're stealing.

Go Here for Roeper's article.

It is true, by the way, that the Jesus in Daley Plaza is bolted down...

this reminds me of a saying in spanish, when someone takes pretty much everything:
"robarse hasta los clavos de la cruz", that translates:
"stealing even the nails of the cross"
