Do you have a nativity scene in your house at Christmas?

Is it modern or classic?
I’m not Christian, or anything for that matter, but I figure Jesus Christ’s influence is all over the Western world so his birthday merits some respect. Mine belonged to my mom.

No. I will take out my menorah in a week or so.
I have a new nativity scene I bought in Mexico three years ago. I guess I would call it “modern” because the figures are more stylistic and representational than traditional carvings.
I leave them out until January 7.

No. I’m Jewish and Unitarian and while I celebrated Christmas while I was married, we never did anything remotely religious on it.
Nah, screw Jesus, too much death & misery, not going to spoil my xmas mate :D
No.
But I work in a catholic hospital and they just announced they were having a blessing of the nativity scene in 10 minutes. I won’t be attending.
Yes, my family is Catholic so we have a Nativity scene as well as an advent wreath.
I keep it out all of the time.

I sometimes think about keeping Christmas lights up all year around.
I have a little one where the figures are fixed in place. It was about $12 from Walmart.
I also have a Peanuts one with the characters from Charlie Brown. That one is not out on display.
I didn’t take out many Christmas decorations yet. I usually do things last minute.
@josie I have white Christmas lights strung in my window in the kitchen, year round. They’re pretty just to light it up at night. Cozy.
@josie Oh don’t. It’s tacky. My little nativity is enjoyed only by me. :)
