Santa Claus is Saint Nicholas in Dutch! St. Nick was real, a bishop in the East and the patron saint of children. He was a pious man who gave away his money to help folks keep their kids from slavery! He’s just not living at the North Pole making and giving toys today! Jesus is the reason for the season but not everyone is ready for that in our post-christian society!

Santa Claus take the place of a Turish Bishop Nicolas who was a bishop in the Catholic Church in Turkey at its beginnings. He used his wealth to give to those families who could not afford to gift money to the groom’ s family so that their daughters could marry and not be sent out into the street. and he did this in the night and people got the money but did not know from whom. He also had the balls to strick Arius in the face because the jackass foster the believe that Jesus was not the Son of GOD and established the Nicene Creed. the only commies in this country at Christmas are the democrats who foster hate, death to the unborn, multilation of children’s bodies and corrupt of their minds. they have been and will always be commies. they do not know the true meaning of democrat for they are not for the people but for themselves. they are the leftovers of the corrupt and evil system of bloody kings and queens in Europe who think their crap smells roses while we are their slaves.

A good opportunity to say Thank you to AMAC , these polls are a great way to practice freedom of speech, to develop ideas , to contribute positive ideas to society . The Holy Family had to evacuate the place where they were, where Jesus Christ was born relatively soon after His birth as the authorities did not want Him to live, to challenge their authority, to present to the world a way of living and believing that would give people an outlook on how to think in a way that respected the will of God. So, that was the first attack on Christmas, and at present there are people who have no regard for the teachings of Christ, and those of us who believe in the teachings of Christ, and our souls are influenced by the teachings of Christ more than anything else.
The story of the Magi, those who informed Mary and Joseph of the threat to Jesus , I believe is something to keep in mind when considering this topic, the topic of this poll ,as it indicates that there are those who care about good being accomplished . The parable of Christ about the lamp has to do with the importance of doing what is morally right, being a good influence on others, setting a good example, and it is about understanding how we should conduct our lives in accordance with the will of God. In the spirit of defending Christmas.

It’s a pagan holiday so I don’t celebrate it, but I have no problem with those who do. I wish people around me a merry Christmas because I would prefer that they not have a sorrowful Christmas. I’m very grateful that the Messiah came, but He wasn’t born on December 25th. It’s far more likely He was born in conjunction with the Feast of Tabernacles.

Problem I see is God has been replaced by satan claus. Almost no where do you see any Christ in Christmas these days. We lie to kids telling them some fat guy in a red suit with an army of elves and flying reindeer is watching everything they do and keeping score. Pretty sick when you think about it. We spend money we don’t have to impress people with stuff they don’t want or need. Just celebrate the birth of a Savior and count your blessings, share your time and resources with others, and just be grateful.

The birth of Jesus is a historical fact and very worthy of celebration and we have the time right. I am sure that Mary knew the day of His birth, the day of his circumcision (memorialized with beautiful stories in the Scriptures) and so did the Apostles. Christians celebrated Christmas before the legalization of Christianity in 313 A.D. (A.D. =Anno Domini “The Year of our Lord”). I have read a beautiful Christmas Sermon by St. John Chrysostom that was delivered on Christmas Day 386 A.D.. Are we to believe that historical Christendom for the past millennia had the wrong date and only we of recent birth have gotten it right?

I voted “gotten a little better” since in my part of the country real-life people do cebrate Christmas for religious, family, and, yes, even commercial reasons. I should qualify that by saying among my high school classmates, divorces can be counted on one hand, no classmates have gone to prison, very few have become drug addicts, nearly all have had, and kept, a job and are successfully retired, and to my knowledge none have been domestic abusers. 50 years later, we still honor what we were taught in school, church,and every-day life, and respect marriage vows,one another, and contractual agreements. That said, movng away to the liberal city my wife and I now live in (due to work) none of that is true. Crime is rampant, truth and service are hard to find, work ethic is virtually non-existent, schools are the worst in the country, and leadership has been replaced by “what’s in it for me.” We believe a strong correlation exists between character values and saying Merry Christmas, based on what we see and hear at both locations. The last insult to believing in doing the right things in the right way, was my land-grant university proclaimig the official greeting there is “Happy Holidays” (presumably to keep those federal grants flowing). Those are my family’s conclusions on saying Merry Christmas, others can draw their own as they please.

These days I’ve seen less and less ads concerning Christmas whether it’s TV or otherwise. Even the famed “Black Friday” after Thanksgiving has been severely downplayed. We’ve all complained of the commercialization of Christmas and about the pressure it adds however, it was also an encouragement to celebrate one of the greatest days in history, our Lord’s birth. I don’t think this an attack on Christmas as such but rather an attack on Christ and His saints. The new same sex marriage law is a open gate to Christian persecution and the dismissal of Christmas is only one tactic. The next thing you know these godless people will be dismissing Thanksgiving as well asking who we’re thanking and declaring that we create our own blessings and therefore thanking “a mythical god” is a basis for racial prejudice and bigotry.

Jesus Christ was not born in December. He was born in Sukkot, late September/October. I do not celebrate Christmas in December. Ancient pagan ritual that needs to be addressed. Churches are empty, and Wal Marts are full. Gimme, gimme, gimme, santa clause nonsense. Very few families even go to church to celebrate the birth of our Lord. Churches are corrupt and most do not even preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.
