Good grief!

It looks like a little kid drew it. The Christmas cards he sends out look like that too. Sometimes you can't make heads or tails of it.

Looks like one of the psychedelic posters from the 60’s. Hideous.

That priest likes abstract art and everything he puts up is crazy looking like that.

I think I lucked out the parish near me is very conservative and old school.

That's a nice church! I switched churches last year and the new church is beautiful. It was built in 1905.

Leaves a lot to be desired

Awful. Even the pope dislikes it.

apparently it is old, not new.

“This year’s was made between 1965 and 1975 by students and teachers in Castelli, an Italian town famous for ceramics”

From the era of moon landing.

I heard of a trad priest where we attended this summer recently say many clergy are actually atheists - by their actions you can see they don't believe.

Given the state of the church - how much can one argue against that?

I think this part of a comment from Colleen at the link in the OP says everything I would say, if I could say this sort of thing here: "Maybe we will get lucky and Antifa will tear it down?"

Yes, it's a shame it wasn't put up in downtown Portland, Oregon, last summer.

Looks like some stoned hippie did it. But, it was actually done fairly recently.

Maybe on Christmas Eve, they'll come to life and sing "Mahna Mahna".
