Why is Santa Clause Better Than the Religious Jesus
When I was in my religious church, I used to wonder like my fellow christians on why has Christmas become a celebration of Santa Clause. Isn’t Christmas supposed to be the birthday for Jesus Christ? How did this Santa Clause manage to sneak in? No matter now hard we tried to tell the public that Christmas is about Jesus and not Santa, no one bothers. Why? In this article, I will seek to explain this phenomena.
Please note that I use the term “Religious Jesus” to mark it as a separate entity form the true Jesus of the Bible. The Religious Jesus is the Jesus preached by the religious churches and this person is the exact opposite of the true Jesus of the Bible.
“How do you know that?”
I was once a member of a religious church. Please go to the following link for information on my past:

Let us start from Santa Clause. What type of a man is he? He is happy. He is kind and generous. He always laughs. He gives out presents unconditionally out of love. He only has one law: Be good and you will get presents. Be naughty and you won’t get any.
Even then, he is very forgiving. Even if you are naughty for the whole year and be good only in the last few days prior to Christmas, you will still be qualified for presents. Whenever he talks to you, he used kind words. Children love him. He doesn’t condemn you nor put you down. He doesn’t lay burdens nor guilt on you.
His favourite words: Ho ho ho. Laughter. He loves to laugh. He creates happy mood. He lifts up your spirit. His only weakness is he only works once a year.
How about the Religious Jesus?
In my view, he is the worst person ever existed. He is a hypocrite, sadist, liar and evil. Whatever evil you can think of, he can do exceeding abundantly worst than that. For some unknown reasons, religious churches love him and promote him.
Here is how he operates:
If you are not a christian, he will tell you how much he loves you. He loves you so much that he is willing to die for your sins. His love is selfless and unconditional. He wants you to accept his love and be a christian.
Once you have become a christian, the evil face appears. Now that you belong to him, you are to obey his every instruction. He wants you to read the Bible, pray, go to church, give him money, serve in church and go for missions. He doesn’t like disobedient children and he will not hesitate to punish anyone who dares to disobey him.
Whenever you pray, he will tell you all your faults. If you sin, he will condemn you for sinning. If you do good, he will tell you it is not enough. No matter what you do, he will find ways to put you down.
If you disobey him, beware! He can give you or your family accidents, sickness or any other disaster. Ironically even if you tried your best to obey his every command he can still give you or your family accidents, sickness or any other disaster. In a nutshell, nothing is beneath him. He can sink to any level, any perversion.
When that happens, you are required to praise him for his goodness.
He also loves your money. It does not matter to him how poor or needy you are. He wants you to give him money. It is his glory to see you poor and sick.
Do you dare to ask him for prosperity? I don’t think so.
Based on the above comparison, who will you choose to spend time with? Santa Clause or Religious Jesus? I go for Santa Clause anytime.
However, I have a good news and a bad news for you.
The bad news is: Santa Clause does not exist.
The good news is: neither does the Religious Jesus.
The Jesus of the Bible is exactly opposite from the Religious Jesus that is preached in the religious churches.
Here is some simple comparison:
Religious Jesus: I want you to stop sinning. I will not hesitate to take stern action to punish you if you still sin.
Jesus of the Bible: I paid for the penalty of your sins. Sin has no power over you now. You are free. Come to me. Together we are going to beat this sin of yours. Remember, I am always on your side against your sins.
Religious Jesus: Sometimes I will give you sickness for any reason I choose. After all I am God. I can do anything I like. I can be as perverted as I want to be. Even then, I expect you to praise me and tell others what a good God I am.
Jesus of the Bible: At the Cross, I took away all your sickness. By my stripes you are healed. Sickness and disease has no right to oppress you. Stand up to your right. I paid dearly for you healing. It pleases me to see you healed. Start believing in me and claim your right of healing.
Religious Jesus: Give me all your money. I love your money. It does not matter to me how poor you are. If you are poor then continue to be poor for my glory.
Jesus of the Bible: At the Cross, I was poor in order to make you rich. It does not matter how bad your situation is right now. As long as you keep believing, you will receive my prosperity. Even if you are very rich now, I can still give you more. It is my glory to see you rich.
Religious Jesus: I want you to do things for me like serving in the church and going for mission. I don’t care how much you need to sacrifice. I am God. If you think you are in a bad shape right now, I can make it worse if you dare to disobey me.
Jesus of the Bible: I appreciate any intention of yours to do things for me but I want you to remember this: You are the one I love. My love for you is not dependent on the things you do for me. Even if you stop doing those things, I still love you.
Conclusion
I hope this simple article is able to help you to tell the difference between the true Jesus and the Jesus invented by the religious churches.

How did they create Christmas classics like Rudolph, Santa Claus is coming To Town and Little Drummer Boy?
I know it’s not Christmas yet but I love watching cartoons like Santa Claus is coming to Town, Little Drummer Boy and Rudolph. I have a curious question. Like how did they do the animations? There were no computers back then. What piece of technology did they use?

Surprising Your Child with a Personal Letter From Santa
Surprising Your Child With a Personal Letter From Santa
By Clare Ticer
Remember when you were growing up, and each year you would write a letter to Santa. You would spend weeks thinking about what you wanted to write to Santa. Then you would spend hours writing the perfect letter. You would become so excited about sending it, that nothing would be the same until it was in the mail.
The day you put your letter in the mailbox you would not be able to sit still until you saw the mailman pick it up. You never knew if Santa received your letter until Christmas morning. The anticipation used to drive me crazy. I had always wished I would have received a personal letter from Santa. Any form of communication or acknowledgement that would have let me know whether he received my letter.
As a parent, you can just imagine the look on your child’s face if they were able to receive a personal letter from Santa. Especially since, these are memories that your child will always remember, always cherish and will stay with them for a lifetime. When your child receives a personalized letter in the mail, they will be thrilled just to receive something. Once, they realize that the letter is from Santa it will seem like something that is too good to be true. They will be extremely surprised to realize that Santa even knows their name. They will feel like a superstar! It will also be a priceless moment that any parent will treasure forever.
Nowadays, parents no longer have to take the time to write their own personal letter from Santa. Parents will no longer have to spend hours trying to make Santa’s signature look authentic, or going all over town to find just the right green ink, or trying to figure out how to get a postmark stamp from the North Pole. Thanks to modern technology, parents can now create a personal letter from Santa online. There are now websites dedicated to helping parents develop an authentic personalized letter from Santa for each boy and girl in your house that still believe in Santa Claus.
The letter will look like it was mailed directly from Santa’s workshop. Parent will also be able to include personalized information; such as eye color, hair color and best friend. You will be able to modify the letter to add in your own personal touches. Some of this information should be facts that only Santa would know. When your child believes in Santa, their entire goal is to make Santa’s list. Your child will do everything to make sure they make the nice list. Receiving a letter from Santa will help to validate your child’s efforts.

Christmas – Santa Claus Does Exist Just Ask the Lord
Who says Father Christmas or if you prefer Santa Claus isn’t real, there are many mom and dads who beg to differ on the matter while whiling away the hours gift wrapping prezzies on Christmas eve. Parents normally in the build up to Christmas day enact a game of pretence for a short period of time to ensure gaiety into the minds of their kids about Mr Snow beard himself, St Nicholas. Throughout the process of pretence adults tend to fall into the fantasy world of make believe evading any myth that Santa Clause does not exist. An imaginary Father Christmas in thought is just as good as the real thing to help conjure up an image of perfection to bring this character to life.
Imaginary proof that Father Christmas is real – permits us to make a wish in the way of a prayer for those less fortunate at this time of year. Make this Christmas the most special ever by:
