Saint Nicholas may have been a bishop, but the legend of Santa Claus is pagan. It tells children to be good so they will get presents.
There’s also the problem that their parents have lied to them.
Considering all the things that children should be learning, I think of Santa as junk food that is taking the place of the good stuff at best, and as pagan brainwashing at worst.
geez you must have had a pussy childhood.
Some of the best memories I have from childhood are from Christmas- I can barely remember any presents but the season, the happiness, the songs, the visits to friends and family, the movies on TV, the sleigh rides, the horses, the tree, the decorations, etc etc...
And when I found out there was no Santa I certainly did not think my parents lied, I instinctively knew they loved playing that role because they loved their children, loved making us happy, and we loved it too- win-win.
Parents lied to them???
Santa was Pagan so it’s EEEEVillll~!!
gimme a break- I betcha God even loves Christmas like any parent loves making his children happy....
