Italy school BANS Jesus from being mentioned in CHRISTMAS songs as 'matter of respect'

SCHOOLCHILDREN in Italy have been banned from mentioning Jesus in Christmas songs as a matter of “respect” for non-Catholic students.
Headteacher Paola Bellini and her pupils were due to stage their December production next Monday, and students have been practising their repertoire of three Christmas songs for a number of weeks.


However, in a controversial move that has outraged parents, the lyrics of one popular Christmas song has been replaced - and the word Jesus shockingly omitted.
