Well if you had a personal relationship with Santa, and could feel his power in life, maybe yes.

So, a person's FEELINGS determine what is objectively true or not ?

What if we replaced the word -- SANTA above with Adolf Hitler ? Is the answer still maybe yes ?

“So, a person’s FEELINGS determine what is objectively true or not ?”

You’re looking for proof when the kind of proof you want doesn’t exist. What you should be doing is thinking about faith. That is the basis of Christianity.

The Apostle Paul didn’t believe either. It took getting knocked on his *ss (or off his *ss, I guess) before he believed.

If you are not the kind of person who can rely on faith, then don’t. Start off by just admitting that you don’t know everything (which is true) and keep your mind open about the possibility. God has a way of sending people messages, and if your mind is open, you might receive them.
