You might know it as a ‘Nativity Play’, but apparently that is discriminatory against everyone who doesn’t believe in a blue eyed Arab that lived two thousand years ago who could walk on water and do other David Blaine type tricks.

My two year-old nephew was instead taking part in a non-denominational non-religious winter ‘celebration’ with his Nursery colleagues. I have not had any input into the script so I can’t give away any major plot lines, but I am pretty sure it doesn’t involve Virgins or Arabs. There might be a shocking twist in the story, hopefully, just to keep the audience guessing (I know how dull they can be), I just do not know.

“Can you video it for me so I can watch it over the holidays?” I asked my sister in a moment of seasonal weakness.

“Oh, we can’t video it, I’m sorry.”

“Can’t you borrow someone’s camera? I’d really like to see it?”

“It’s not that, it’s just we’re not allowed to video it to stop the Paedos and stuff.”

This is disappointing on so many levels.

One, I cannot see my nephew in his debut stage performance, and two, my sister clearly lives in a town with a terrible paedophile problem.

I have seen some home movies taken by my sister (not like that, that would be disgusting and I would have to pay good money like all the other customers). They are generally rubbish. Her hands shake and she doesn’t understand the fact that there is a microphone next to her head. If these films were to find their way onto the Internet and into a perverts clutches, then I am sure it would send many paedo’s back onto the straight and narrow.

If you were a Paedo, would a non-denominational non-religious winter celebration really be the best place for you? Not being able to go, I can not be sure of the dress code, but I would imagine a silver jump suit and platform boots would stand out a little bit.

It is political correctness gone barmy. I can understand banning all sexual deviants from school plays (so long as they don’t mind people who enjoy a little bit of ‘experimentation’ that is still frowned upon in certain parts of America), but how is banning parents from filming their child helping anyone?
