It cracks me up with I see Santa Claus on one side of someone's yard and a Nativity scene on the other.

Even better is when they have Santa Claus standing with the shepherds and magi adoring the baby Jesus.

I'm not sure how to take that? Do you think that is wrong? Why? I'm assuming Saint Nicholas, by virtue of the fact that he is a saint, was a religious Catholic, so would he not also be in adoration of our Lord and Savior like anyone of us. If anything, I think that sends an important message about what was a priority to the real "Santa Claus" and it wasn't making a list and checking it twice. In fact, I have an ornament showing the Santa Claus the secular world knows kneeling before the Lord's manger.


Here is a nice little story about "Santa"
