Star Wars Nativity Scenes: In A Manger Far, Far Away

A long time ago, in a manger far far away...people were revising their Christian iconography to fit a Lucasfilm agenda. Check out these Star Wars themed nativity sets. Sacrilegious, but crafty.

1. What Rebel Child Is This?

Are these Stormtroopers Mary and Joseph? Or are they inspecting the newborn savior? Made by Stefan Le Du, via Flickr.

2. Imperial Parade Goes To Bethlehem

Shot by JP Puerta. Not sure what's going on with the Imperial parade arriving at the Nativity. Possibly they are paying homage. Or staging a coup.
