It is the ‘nativity-denunciation’ set up today by the parish priest of Ponsacco (Pisa), Don Armando Zappolini, “to denounce the hypocrisy of those who want to defend the Christian roots of Europe without applying the true messages of the Gospel”.

The nativity was presented by the priest to the faithful during the morning mass. “I think it is right to denounce the hypocrisy of those who speak of the Christian roots of Europe and then do the opposite of what the Gospel says in their behavior – explained Don Armando -. This is why we have placed photos of the children in the crib. from the barbed wires between Belarus and Poland, or those of migrants in Lesbos to make it clear that baby Jesus is born today between two desperate people, the face of a man and a woman who try to bring themselves and their children to safety “.
