Oh geez. Yes Santa is real, but not the way you described. If you look at history, you will see the stories of Santa and his elves, and they start looking suspiciously like something else.

Jesus doesn’t need any help, he’s Jesus. He’s our intercessor, he’s the one who was born as a man and later died for our sins. A lot of this other stuff is designed to distract from that. I know many won’t agree with me, but I choose to follow God’s word, not some concocted stories.

I’m just stating the catholic belief. Many people interpret that to be bossy and lecturing. I’m just stating facts as facts and beliefs as beliefs. No one is saying you have to believe the the same beliefs.

Santa is a saint, that’s what ‘santa’ means. He was a catholic bishop

Some people hate hearing about saints so I always expect to get flamed

Just talking about the origin of Saint Nick that’s all

I don’t care if you believe it or if you don’t. But it’s strange how people feel so free to put down Catholicism. No other belief system comes upon such flamery here. I don’t know why people care so much that they need to put it down. But they do it
