Alex Murphy: Please Forward to Christoph Schommer:
My legal name is Santa Claus, and I am a Christian Monk and ordained Priest who volunteers as a full-time advocate for children who are abused, neglected, exploited, abandoned, homeless, and institutionalized through no fault of their own. I believe that Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Christ, not the crass, commercial, secular spectacle it has become in many places, and that the greatest gift one can give is love, not presents. Shame on you for belittling Santa’s generous and loving spirit. Santa Claus (SantasLink dot net)

Ah yes, I indeed remember you. As I recall, you're a monk in the Order of the Anam Cara, which is under the Apostles' Anglican Church. How is the AAC different/distinct from the United Catholic Church? The Order's website makes reference to both, but doesn't explain the relationship between the two.
