When Jesus was born, it is true, his family were not refugees, just people who had to travel to a different town to register. But after his birth, King Herod wanted all the infants killed, so Joseph had to flee with his family to Egypt. So they were refugees, later. Which is presumably why the Liverpool Nativity focused on "Herodia" and the plight of the refugees. I think we often forget - I know I do - that Jesus lived as a refugee. Presumably his earliest memories could have been of Egypt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-38478577587214916742008-01-02T14:00:00.000+00:002008-01-02T14:00:00.000+00:00Hello LouiseThe Nativity was great.

They might find that, after all, they are just ordinary people like themselves.<BR/><BR/>Asylum claims currently account for 4% of inward migration to the UK and around half of those people will be removed or return voluntarily. What do the numbers have to fall to before people will stop knocking Refugees? <BR/><BR/>All around the world there are millions of people living in fear and in pain and we are one of the best placed countries to help out - good transport links, healthy ecconnomy (compare ours with Zimbabwe), one of the richest nations going, people seem terrified of 'the unknown foreigner' in our midst.<BR/><BR/>Looking at the conflict around the world I don't feel we take enough refugees: Jesus, Moses, Einstein, the Dalai Lama, Michael Marks(M&S)<BR/><BR/>I could go on but I won't - Check out the International Crisis Website http://www.crisisgroup.org/home/index.cfm<BR/>and people can see just how much conflict there is out there and why it is important for us to provide a safe place for people.<BR/><BR/>Happy New Year, EwanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-63620392704165851722008-01-02T09:14:00.000+00:002008-01-02T09:14:00.000+00:00The Liverpool Nativity was absolutely wonderful!

Sorry if that shocks you. <BR/><BR/>You are equating Asylum Seekers with Muslims, you are equating foreigners with Muslims, you are equating black faces with Muslims and then you are equating Muslims with something negative.<BR/><BR/>You are wrong on every point. <BR/><BR/>Asylum Seekers are just as likely to be Christian, or indeed atheist, or agnostic or anything else. <BR/><BR/>Foreigners more generally can be of any religion, Poles tend to be Roman Catholics for instance and have saved many of our churches from shutting down due to falling congregations. But again they can be atheists or agnostic or anything else. <BR/><BR/>Many of the black people living in this country now are Christians, particularly those from Africa. But they could be any one of a hundred different religions.<BR/><BR/>Muslims believe in peace, harmony, serving the community, voluntary service, charitable works, adherence to a religious way of life. You dont have to believe in the supremacy of Mohammed to admire Muslims for their thoughtful and considered approach.<BR/><BR/>Don't call again.Louise Baldockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430662342062143143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-90129711334095106402007-12-17T12:38:00.000+00:002007-12-17T12:38:00.000+00:00It was a load of PC liberal nonsense.
