The reason I talk about santa like this is because the culture tries to take away what Christmas is

To be clear, historical fact is that Saint Nick lived and he was a bishop. He was a holy man and after he died he was canonized a saint in the Catholic Church, as defined by Catholicism, which also states that no one is a saint until after they’re dead; that people can be holy while alive but are not saints until after they’re done here.

Your idea of sainthood is a belief, and I don’t say you cannot believe that. I don’t even say you’re wrong I’m just saying what the Catholic Church states.

If you have a difference with that and you want to tell us what to believe, you are free to take it up with a priest. But I cannot help you

Don’t tell me what to believe as I won’t tell you what to believe,

I simply believe God’s word, it tells us what to believe.

A man made religion cannot dictate what to believe, and to do that is against God’s word.

I for one will stick with God’s word above all else.
