The church of the Nativity is occupied by three religions: Roman Catholics, Greek Orthodox and Armenian Orthodox. Unfortunately they provide a very poor example of Christian behavior since each one jealously guards their slice of territory and even have lines drawn on the floor to differentiate their area of control. They all also lay claim to controlling the "Key to the sculls". The sculls being the remains of the children which King Herod ordered to be killed shortly after Jesus was born, in an attempt to kill Jesus.
