I wonder how long it took this person to realize they just shot themselves in the foot.

Santa gave me presents.

The Easter Bunny gave me chocolate.

The Tooth Fairy gave me money.

God gave me fuck-all.

So you admit that a naive belief in God is rather childish?

It's refreshing to see someone like you admit that, Faith. Unfortunately, I think we're all out of grownup alphabet blocks.

Reality's a bitch aint it!

(Oh and do we have to sit on God's knee and tell him if we've been good or bad?)

- The reason Santa's so jolly is he knows where all the bad girls live! George Carlin.

So why's God a cranky old fart?

I want to pay a homeless guy to change his name to Santa Clause and send him to live in the Arctic.

For some reason, the idea of making a widespread lie that much more convoluted puts a smile on my face.

As a matter of fact, many of us do hold on to a belief in God as children.
And exactly as we do for Santa Claus, many of us eventually grow out of it.

When I was born, my RC grandparents gave me a small bible, I guess something they did in the old country for babies or something. Being somewhat advanced of intellect, I started reading it, comprehensively, at the age of 2. By 3, I had dismissed it as irrational twaddle, and went back to watching cartoons. I stopped believing in Santa when I was 9. So...you're all-powerful skydaddy can't even convince a toddler who thinks Spider-Man is real that He actually exists. Some omnipotent deity you've got there.

Two answers:

a) I am an adult now. Not a child anymore.

b) Even as a child, I didn't 'believe' in Santa Claus. I was fully aware that Santa at the mall is nothing but a student in costume. But that didn't stop me to have fun in this whole christmas thing.

I agree entirely.

As a child, I believed in Santa Claus. Then I grew up and learned to think for myself and see him as the fantasy that he is.

"you know santa claus...and how much you loved him...why cant everyone just hold onto God they way they hold on to Santa Claus as a child?"

So - since 1931 - God is purely an invention of the Coca-Cola* Company? Gotcha.

*- Before then, Santa Claus was always portrayed wearing either yellow & white, or green & white. But Coca-Cola - for their 1931 Xmas promotion - commissioned artist Haddon Sundblom to visualise him wearing the company's corporate colours. As said adverts was such a massive hit, the image of him in red & white became ingrained in the public's imagination forever. Ergo, Coca-Cola invented the modern Santa Claus as we know him today. QED.

Kinda makes you think eh, 'Faith'...?
