Pope defends nativity scenes

Top News Article | Reuters.co.uk
"VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope John Paul, battling to keep Christ in Christmas, has defended nativity scenes that are being stripped from holiday celebrations in some Italian schools to avoid offending non-Christians.

'It is an element of our culture and of art, but above all a sign of faith in God, who came to Bethlehem to live among us,' the pope said on Sunday."
