Get your kids out of government-run schools.

Here in China, all the offices have Christmas trees, and many have images of St. Nick. Though, it is more likely to be a German / English version of him rather than a USA version.

Mississippi schools must really be backwards - they say the Pledge each morning, have Christmas trees and decorations, and even teachers aren’t afraid to say they’re Christian....

In my opinion, nothing about Santa Claus (St. Nicholas ??) in present-day America suggests commemorating or celebrating the birth of Jesus, the Christ, the Very Son of God.

True.

First we get kids to believe in the tooth fairy. They outgrow that quickly. Then we get kids to believe in Santa Claus, which takes years to outgrow. Then when we tell them the truth of the gospel, the kids think to themselves, "sure I'll play along for a while."

Put St. Nicholas and other saints up on the doors. Yes, I’m serious.
