Apparently the Pope doesn't think that knocking down old ladies and fighting over sale items is a good way to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
"In today's consumer society, this time (of the year) is unfortunately subjected to a sort of commercial 'pollution' that is in danger of altering its true spirit, which is characterized by meditation, sobriety and by a joy that is not exterior but intimate," the Pope said in his traditional Sunday blessing.
Sadly, I can't do any better than the Fark tag:
Pope denounces materialism from balcony of marble, gold-domed building in midst of jewel-encrusted religious icons while wearing giant gold cross
Ha!
