Japanese Illustrator Puts His Stamp on Christmas
 The Church of England has expressed its disappointment with the Royal Mail over this year's Christmas stamps, which are noticeably void of Christian references and opt instead for festive fun features. Baby Jesus, the Virgin Mary and the three wise men have been ditched for the Royal Mailfs 2006 Christmas stamp collection in favour of festive images of Santa Claus, snowmen, reindeer and a Christmas tree surrounded by presents...The Royal Mail's 40th collection of festive stamps, which went on sale Tuesday, was designed by Japanese digital illustrator Tatsuro Kiuchi. Less religious detractors wonder why Santa appears to be taking a dump down the chimney in one of the stamps.

Oh thats just silly! I liked the stamps, and think its hard to make each years stamps unique, interesting and pretty without repeating anything from previous years. Christmas has lots of views and the Church is wrong to say that you can only think of one view - Jesus/Mary...
Santa is as much a part of Christmas today as Jesus is.

Looks like Santa's taking a crap to me. Always wondered when and where he did his business.
