“Santa Claus Peace Council”? Is this a joke?

I thought St. Nicholas was more popular in the Orthodox Churches than he is among Catholics. Back in the time of the Tsars, for instance, Russians used to say, “If God dies, we still have St. Nicholas.”

I can’t imagine any that I know who would applaud the destruction of the relics, any more than they would applaud the worship of them.

Because those hundreds of degrees of heat in the oven wouldn’t have killed the germs?

Yeah, but I saved the day by quick thinking and told him to go wash his hands and he had a hissy fit and went into his bed room to sulk.
Thankfully the ham was still in it's plastic package and I did the preparing my self and put it in the oven my self.
The ham turned out great, finally.

God has ways of protecting his word, the history of his word and Christianity, and his people.
Those " articles " will some how be protected super naturally in many ways.
Remember Sodom and Gomorrah ? how God blinded the homosexuals who wanted to mate with the holy angels ?
God blinded them, and sent their minds into confusion and told Lot and his family to " GET OUT OF HERE AND DON'T LOOK BACK "

" Quick, call A&E. There's going to be an empty family reality show slot open soon. Merry Xmas! "

LOL.... they would have to give that show the 3 second rule ( not that I would be cussing or being vulgar ) but they would have to cancel the show in the first 3 minutes after I get up on my soap box and start preaching and preach God's word in how I really feel about them.

Heard that you can actually cook food on a car's exhaust manifold, it's doable, but would have to make a stainless steel box that won't melt that would hold the food in place while you drive.

Is that kick the ham can ? mashes ham ?
I guess if you have not eaten in weeks and super hungery you would not be to fussy about where the food came from at that point.

It's more of a mental factor in this story.
It's not the sterilize factor, I know the oven would take care of any nasties, but ? it's the thought that counts, opps, that's for the non-gift, gifts, .... it's the thought of him picking his feet before he was about to handle food.
Sort of like when people after doing # 2 in the bathroom and don't bother washing their hands and then go ahead and handle food..... would you ? eat that food ? .... nope...

So that's where they get that special sauce to glaze hams ?
You learn something new everyday.
No wonder wine that is crushed by people's feet have that added " Tangy " taste to it.
Are you a fan of old shoe soup ? stinky socks stew ?

Well, even thought it's for real, I saved the day from being a almost disaster.
It all turned out ok in the end by some quick thinking on my part.
Yup, it came that close.
Thankfully, he didn't open the plastic package, and I was the one who prepared the ham.
