    Who is this "god" character y'all keep referring to and what does he/she have to do with Santa's holiday?

    My info is coming from the history channel, so Idk. I've heard somewhere else about it being just a pegan god's b-day, but not mentioning which one specifically. I mentioned this once, when I was living with this older guy, I almost got kicked out of the house.

    Yeah, its crazy how you hear happy holidays now, instead of Merry Christmas. It is rediculous. I say Merry Christmas, but couldn't imagine someone trying to censor me. I'd laugh and laugh.
    None of that happy holidays shite in Ireland thanks to our deeply entrenched Catholic history :D Although some pc stuff is beginning to creep in. It's total bullshit.

    dude......here is a recipe for you, no shit best mixtue i have come up with.

    whole wheat bread, spread natural peanut butter(only ingrediants are peanuts and salt), 10 almonds, 30 raisins. fold into a taco and put honey on it.

    let me know what you think.
    live and let live...unless it violates the pearligious doctrine.
  • How long do you let a kid believe in Santa?

    If it was up to me, I'd never mention Santa in the first place and when my kids ask about him I'd say he's pretend. But its not up to me, is it?

    Anyways, at what age does it turn into a crappy thing to do to let your kids keep believing in something so rediculous?

    Swap out the word "santa" and replace it with "god" and we'll have the questions I've been asking...

    I assume the precise count on almonds and raisins is critical?

    Christmas is a time of cheer and good tidings. It's a magical time for young children and it is to bad that political correctness causes people to turn into Grinches.

    The super P.C. want to take God out of Christmas. The super conservative want to take the holiday spirit out of Christmas. Unfortunatly, the rest of the sane people get caught in the volleys while both sides pee in our punch.

    I pretty much stopped believing it on my own when i found my presents in a closet.

    I stopped in the 4th grade. I already had my doubts, but when I asked why there was an extra guitar chord by the front door, my parents kinda joked about santa f-ing up and having to go all the way back to get another. Their attitude sealed the deal.

    My attitude to my 10 year old step daughter, has been sarcastic about him being real. I don't know how much she believes in it. I think she's come around for the most part. I'm not even talking about it this year, because I asked her if the easter bunny made any sense this year and it was a big deal to her mom. I just don't understand why its fun to believe in stupid lies. Kids can have just as much fun knowing its pretend. Isn't getting presents on Christmas and chocolate on Easter and just being around family fun enough?

    it's not 'lies' :eek: its 'magic'. Let the kids have some bloody magic in their lives... why do we need to introduce them to reality so early??? That's bullshit... I personally LOVED the whole magic of santa thing... and I don't know ONE person who was fucked up by learning the truth. It's doing NO harm! :mad: there! Rant over!

    Verona??? it's all surmountable
