Grinch stands outside elementary school with ‘Santa is Fake’ sign, angering parents and scaring kids
NY Post ^ | 11/30/23 | Nicholas McEntyre

This is one way to make the naughty list.

A killjoy Texas “pastor” stood outside an elementary school dressed as the Grinch holding up a sign stating “Santa is Fake. Jesus is Real,” in an attempt to steal the holiday joy from the kids inside.

David Harold Grisham posed as the beloved Dr. Seuss character in front of Sleepy Hollow Elementary School in Amarillo, Texas earlier this week professing his belief towards the children and the parents he views as telling a lie

The un-jolly man claimed he was assaulted outside the school while the “police showed up in force” to distract him from his mission and blocked him from “exercising my first amendment rights as much as they could,” Grisham said in a Facebook post.

“Hundreds of children heard the message and many parents as well,” He added. “It’s very telling for a society to go this far in protecting a LIE. To go that far in trying to protect kids from hearing the truth. It’s no wonder our country is in trouble.”

The guy back in the 80's who held the "John 3:15" sign did it at sporting events, but doing it front of an elementary school is creepy.

Santa was real. He’s no longer alive, and he’s certainly not worth praying to. But the real St. Nicholas was a hero of God’s church and we’d do well to imitate many of his ways (well, maybe not the part about punching Arius at the Council of Nicaea for saying Jesus isn’t divine LOL).

I can think of several heretics that deserve a good ol’ Nicholas-style punch in the face.

I don't get this.

We never thought Santa was real (yes I know about the Bishop of Myra) as children and would not teach it to our cubs but there is no reason to act like this.

In fact as children we were taught that some children believe in Santa and to be kind we would not correct them. Which is the same thing we would teach the cubs.

If you want to argue with the parents do so, but leave the small fry out of the conversation.

No, the John 3:15 guy did not up a sign claiming 

Santa is Fake

Jesus is Real

The best way to get your point across is to start by upsetting people, and making them mad.
Not.

This guy is not all bad:

His FB post from 5 years ago says:

David Harold Grisham
June 9, 2018 · Anchorage, AK

Facebook Saints, today our ministry made history. Our ministry Last Frontier Evangelism-Repent Alaska was the very first ministry in the history of the U. S. To directly confront the homosexual activists in their attempt to indoctrinate little children at Public Libraries with their perverse campaign of “Story Time with a Drag Queen” They’re coming after the children, folks. And our ministry should not be the last because Christians need to RISE UP and CONFRONT this demonic attack upon America’s children. Go out, Saints, and REBUKE with all authority in Christ!!!

Back off. The young children enjoy this for so few years. Back off.

Santa Claus is kind of the root cause to why Christmas in America has been so corrupted. What does all this consumerism have to do with the birth of the baby Jesus?

America is sick, and our core religious holy days are nothing more than spending sprees, devoid of the their original intent. Easter is the other big ignorance festival, it’s the day the Bunny lays eggs with prizes inside.

Phoney! Are kiddos in elementary schools above the age of accountability? Sounds like this jerk is looking to be famous for a day. Maybe if he is interested in saving souls he should put on a Jesus costume with a sign saying “Jesus saves” and go demonstrate in front of a bunch Mosques.

He should have shown up in drag, ya know ms. Grinch, then I would be okay.
What an a hole! They are a few years in a child’s life that are magical, if you’re lucky, from 3 to 8. And this guy has to sabotage that.

That song is down right creepy.

Especially the Springsteen version.

The good news: Santa is real.

The bad news: He works for the CIA.

Some of us are very devout in our Christian beliefs while enjoying, at the same time, celebrating the concept of Santa.
