Francis' Words and Deeds: “Beauty Appears in The Christmas Crèche” - Really?

“When truth and beauty are transmitted in art, this fills the heart with joy and hope,” Francis told a group of artists on December 12.

He was talking in front of a weird painting representing a “Cosmic Embrace.” Francis explained that an artist needs “pure and dispassionate hands, capable of transmitting truth and beauty" which appears "in the lowliness of the Christmas crèche.”

In sharp contrast to these claims, the Vatican unveiled on December 11 on Saint Peter's Square the ugliest Nativity Scene ever.

Now, now...let's all be charitable. It was created by school children at an art school in the 1960s. Look at it and appreciate it like you would look at something created as art by your kindergarten or elementary school-aged child or grandchild, not like it was made by an artistic Master such as a Bernini or a Michelangelo.

If one has an evil eye, it would be beautiful.
