Looks Christian to me.

It also looks like a thirty-nine cent stamp. When are we supposed to use this?
How come the stamp shows $.39 when it should be $ .41 ?
I'd apologize for them, but I've met their kind before ~ and in their view Baby Jesus better be laying down in a strawfilled manger ~
Several years back I found it necessary to dispute the legitimacy of one of the secular stamps. Although Santa Claus is a favorite figure, this time the stamps had Little Red Man's colors and decor (white dots on a red background) and Reindeer man (as a shamen) blowing a shamen's trumpet and/or beating a shamen's drum.
Technically no one believes in the Old Religion these days, so that wasn't a problem, but Little Red Man is the amanita muscaria mushroom which is halucinogenic. Reindeer love 'em. They'll snarf one up and run around with it on their nose, their eyes rolling in their heads as they imagine they are flying (SEE: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer).
I thought it a tad inappropriate for the Postal Service to be issuing stamps celebrating dopers.
Some of my posts in FR regarding those stamps are among the highest volume cites found in Google.com 4 years later! Guess everybody wonders what Santa Claus did for kicks eh?! And why's he wandering about with all those flying reindeer.
This is the old one, isn’t it? As long as the new one still have St. Mary and Baby Jesus...
Do your letters keep coming back?
(They’re 41 cents now.)
