Santa Claus is definitely NOT coming to town

I am always amazed as I grow older, to see people my age teaching their kids about Santa Claus. I hate Santa Claus, have always hated Santa Claus, will always hate Santa Claus. Why in the world would I want gifts from some nameless, meaningless person who has been given God-like qualities????

When I get a gift, I want to know who it is from. The gift means so little without a person behind it, wouldn't you agree? God's gift of His Son, was clearly marked. The Bible says, "GOD GAVE" His only Son.

I taught my kids from birth that there was no Santa. There isn't, so why would I teach them about it? It's not that I'm no fun, well, I guess I'm not. Lies aren't fun to me. No one believes that Cinderella is real. Why? Because we say it is a story, a FAIRY tale. So, if you are so fired up to talk about Santa in a season where we celebrate the ultimate extreme sacrifice, at least say it is a story. I'm hurt that Santa is taught to kids. I love the Christ who came as a baby because I WAS DEAD IN MY TRESPASSES AND SIN. DEAD, I tell you. Ain't no Santa takin' me to heaven.

And by the way, it's the minute stretcher that gets Santa to all the houses Christmas Eve. DUH!

Preach it! You go girl, love Mom PS your Children are the 3rd or 4th generation who taught their children about Christ not Mr. Santos (Ernest saves Christmas)

I believe in Santa. He makes me happy. Haven't you read I Santa 3:16? I want Santa to run for president.
