Can anyone post here the "Merry Christmas Legal Disclaimer" that has been posted many times before. Something on the order of "Wish does not imply fullfillment, merely good intention, blah, blah..."

You need some large Christmas cards to include this disclaimer.

There was another one having to do with the Santa cookie disclaimer
"Santa Claus, AKA Kris Kringle, AKA Jolly Old St. Nick (hereinafter referred to as “Santa”) acknowledges receipt of Christmas cookies from ______________________ (hereinafter referred to as “Baker”). Santa acknowledges and understands that no warranty, either express or implied, is made by Baker as to the nutritional content of cookies.

This document is offered to duly warn Santa that dangerous conditions, risks, and hazards may result from overconsumption of cookies. Santa is hereby informed that cookies may contain any or all of the following: calories, carbohydrates, sodium (salt), fat, saturated fat, trans fat, polyunsaturated fat, monounsaturated fat, nuts, sugar, caffeine, chocolate “chips” and/or “chunks,” and good cheer.

Santa acknowledges that eating way too many cookies may incur risks including, but not limited to, satiation, indigestion, heartburn, dizziness, laziness, holiday spirit, “food coma,” and “that bloated feeling.”

As consideration for accepting Baker’s cookies, Santa indemnifies Baker from all liability for injury or other harm (including obesity) which may be caused, in whole or in part, by said “too many” cookies. Santa agrees that neither he, nor his agents or personal representatives, will sue Baker for any injury suffered, in whole or in part, as a consequence of ingesting cookies. Santa assumes full responsibility and will indemnify Baker for any damages in the event that he transfers cookies to any third party (including, but not limited to, potential claimants Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, Rudolph, Mrs. Claus, and various elves).

This indemnification includes an agreement not to haul Baker into court on the basis of:

1. Failure to provide nutrition information and a list of ingredients (the “Grandma’s secret recipe” clause);

2. Failure to caution of the potential for overeating because cookies taste “yummy” and are provided at no cost;

3. Failure to advise that walking, biking, and jogging will shed pounds, but riding around on a reindeer-powered sleigh will not;

4. Failure to warn that Christmas lights, lawn ornaments (plastic reindeer, snowmen, etc.) and other holiday dec orations may constitute manipulative marketing to lure Santa into over-consumption.

5. Failure to offer “healthier” cookie alternatives (e.g., tofu bars or carrot sticks);

6. Failure to counsel that cookies may be habit-forming and/or irresistible; and

7. Failure to notify that eating too many cookies may lead to even greater levels of obesity for St. Nick (the “Sanity Clause”).

SANTA HAS READ THIS DOCUMENT AND UNDERSTANDS IT. SANTA IS SIGNING IT FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND PROMISES NOT TO APPEAR AS A WITNESS IN SUPPORT OF JOHN “SUE THE BASTARDS” BANZHAF, ESQ., OR ANY OTHER PERSONS WITH LAW DEGREES WHO CANNOT OTHERWISE FIND MEANINGFUL EMPLOYMENT, AT ANY TIME IN THE FUTURE. Don’t Sue The Hand That Feeds You. CHRISTMAS COOKIE LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION Santa Date Provided by: For more information visit ConsumerFreedom.com. To schedule an interview, contact Mike Burita at (202) 463-7112."

That's not "the Marxist's Jesus" becuase a poster from FR thinks it is.

My daughter's catholic high school sells those exact same dolls in the school book store.

Give me a break!

It's a joke - odd for this thread I know.
I thought it was funny and I'm Christian

Ah, the Buddy Christ. I have one proudly displayed on my desk hgere at work.
"For example, the crucifix. While it has been a time honored symbol of our faith, Holy Mother Church has decided to retire this highly recognizable, yet wholly depressing image of our Lord crucified. Christ didn't come to Earth to give us the willies... He came to help us out. He was a booster!"
