Is Santa Claus Real?

[A27 Cromwell]

In this age of information overload and cynical attention grabbing, I think it's important to reminds ourselves that the world can still be a beautiful place of innocent wonder of uncomplicated delights. Is it so wrong to believe that there exist a spirit of joy willing to share itself and inspire others to do the same? I think not. I prefer to not be hard-hearted and feign disinterest in the happiness in others. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and that your family members use the correct pronouns on your presents.

How could Santa Claus be coming to town if he's not real?

I swear, deniers don't even try to make their beliefs make sense.

Santa Claus is an immortal spirit that is fueled through our belief. We must simply let him work through us as his material hands. One time while talking to Stalin, Hitler claimed to be possessed by the greater spirit of St. Nick, which shook Stalin to his core. Let me ask you this. Can you name another Christmas where everyone got six million presents?

Contrary to popular conception, Santa Claus is real in the sense that he's based off the very real Saint Nicholas which is pretty real compared to some other mythical figures. One thing that would be cool is a Santa Claus origin story that incorporated his actual real background as a bishop. But nobody has bothered to do that yet with all the ones that exist choosing more boring fake origins for some reason.

Where's the "Yes, because I'm not a Santa-denying and buzzkilling piece of shit" option in this poll?

Did you know Santa was cheating on his wife with a gay black man? Tell all book!

My baby sitters dad once explained to me that Santa claus real name is Satan and he eats babies.
Now that I think about it I'm starting to realize there was a reason he started taking medication.

I heard if you kill Santa and steal his coat you take his job, wife, and you own the elves too. Good option for those in-between jobs right now.

Sorry, but you're honestly telling me Santa delivered 6 million presents in a single night and not once did anyone question how he did it with reindeers and a sled? And ate an additional 6 million cookies too? Even stranger is how all the funding for this "individual" goes towards companies all owned by (((God's Chosen Elves))).
Really makes you think.

idk what the youtube video is but I voted for it.

anyway, Santa Claus isn't real.

Santa Claus was real.

How do I know?



because I am Satan Claws, and I killed him and took his place (you are getting cat poop in your stockin this year)

We got a deal going where I call people retards, faggots and niggers whole year and he delivers me a couple of tons of coal by the end of he year. Then we sell it, split the money and his superiors don't need to know about it. Naughty list gets filled, coal gets delivered, we get a nice bonus, everyone's happy.

No, Santa Clause is not real. Your parents bought you presents. Your dad had to work overtime to be able to afford them. Your mother and father wrapped them at night while you were sleeping. They might have had to get up the next day and go to work depending on when they wrapped them.

Virginia,

Your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except what they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds.

All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to our life its highest beauty and joy.

Alas! How dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

Not believe in Santa Claus? You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your Papa to hire men to watch all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove?

Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see.

Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders that are unseen and unseeable in the world.

You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, or even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernatural beauty and glory beyond.

Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else as real and abiding.

No Santa Claus? Thank God he lives and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, maybe 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the hearts of children

There's no solid empirical proof that Santa isn't real.

Who knows! Maybe Santa is the friends and family we made along the way.

Did this seriously need to be featured? Everyone knows Santa is real.
