A little black doll of Jesus created a huge fuss and viewed as offensive for the Christmas Eve.
Calls from residents claimed that their dark-skinned baby Jesus is not accurate and it is offensive but Melbourne MP Lizzie Blandthron replied about the complaint saying that people don’t understand that she is Christian and can’t find anything wrong in this.
She says that we all have blood under our skins and that’s pure red and same. So what matters are how Jesus was and what he did for humanity? She told this to 7 News. However a small group of people is making an issue about this but most people have agreed with her. Father Joselito Asis said that Jesus would want people to portray his someone like themselves.
The dark skinned doll of the Jesus was worshipped for 400 years. The Catholic priests have saved Ms Blandthorn who kept the black Jesus in her electoral office window. However Ms Blandthorn said that she has no intention to remove the doll from the display but surely she covers up some parts of the doll when people pointed out that “he “was actual “she”. But the residents kept their views about the doll that is it is offensive to Christmas. Although Ms Blandthron has a duck and a garden dwarf in her display which doesn’t have the nativity sense but people didn’t complain about them yet.
