Strange that the humble birth of a baby in an obscure village of the Near East a couple of thousand years ago should so disrupt the pattern of the Good Life that even the New York Stock Exchange pauses for the day. Odd that the church bells in Brussels, Boston, Buenos Aires, and Biloxi ring out to commemorate the coming of a child who would never know the intricacies of economic warfare and foreign policy, much less the diplomacy of cocktail party etiquette. Funny that angels and shepherds should share top billing with Peyton Place, missiles, and sensational murders. More unusual still are the moments amid tinsel and eggnog when we realize that the celebrated infant of a far-off time and place was a living symbol of all the love and humanity that man can ever hope to know.
