Ok, people are probably gunna tell me that I'm really picky after they read this post, but I don't care 'cause it's just a cause-and-effect kinda thing.
Three facts that are supposedly about Christmas:
First of all, I'm starting to hate some Christmas decorations.
Second, I am beginning to want to shoot blow darts at all of the blow up Christmas decorations
Third, I really hate Santa (and consequently I'm never gunna tell any little kids [or anybody to be exact, unless I'm gunna prove he's fake] about him)
Reasons for the three facts that are supposedly about Christmas:
First, I'm starting to hate some of the Christmas decorations because what are most of them of? SANTA (notice how if you rearrange the letters in 'Santa' it becomes Satan, just switch the first 'a' and 'n')
Second, most of the blow up decorations are of Santa.
Third, the reason I'm never gunna tell people that Santa is real, is because
he's fake, so I'd be lying to them, and most of all, Santa "checks his
list to see if you've been naughty or nice" and "Santa gives you
presents" grrrr. PEOPLE ARE TELLING LITTLE KIDS THAT SANTA IS JUDGING
YOU, AND IF YOU WERE GOOD, YOU GET PRESENTS, AND IF YOU WEREN'T GOOD,
YOU DON'T, WHAT HAPPENED TO GOD BEING THE JUDGE, AND HOW CAN A HUMAN LIVE FOREVER, AND ALWAYS KNOW IF YOU'RE GOOD? NOW DON'T GET ME WRONG, BUT I THOUGHT ONLY GOD WAS OMNIPOTENT, I AM RIGHT, AREN'T I???
Christmas is not supposed to be about some fake fat guy that gives you presents, it's about Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, Wonderful Counselor, Emmanuel, Prince of Peace, Savior of the World.
"There were shepherds watching the sheep by night, and behold, the Angel of the Lord appeared to them and said, 'Do not be afraid, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be for all people, for this day, in the City of David, a baby' is born.' Don't you see? That baby was Jesus. That night was Christmas. So you see, Christmas isn't about gettin', it's about givin', and that night, Jesus gave us the greatest gift of all."-Uncle George (from Veggie Tales).
If you tell people about Santa, then you're drawing them away from the true meaning of Christmas, and once (hopefully this never happens) Christmas is only about Santa, and not Jesus the Christ, then, it will no longer be '
Christmas', but merely 'Mas'. (or worse yet, Santamas)
So keep singing about Christ, forget about Santa...
Oh, for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise
The glories of my God and King
The triumphs of His grace
My gracious Master and my God
Assist me to proclaim
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of Thy name
So come on and sing out
Let our anthem grow loud
There is one great love, Jesus
Jesus, the name that charms our fears
That bids our sorrows cease
‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears
‘Tis life and health and peace
He breaks the power of canceled sin
He sets the prisoner free
His blood can make the foulest clean
His blood availed for me
So come on and sing out
Let our anthem grow loud
There is one great love
There is one great love, Jesus
He speaks and listening to His voice
New life the dead receive
The mournful broken hearts rejoice
The humble poor believe
Glory to God and praise and love
Be ever, ever giv’n
By saints below and saints above
The church in Earth and Heav’n
So come on and sing out
Let our anthem grow loud
There is one great love
There is one great love, Jesus
Jesus
There are so few words
That never grow old
There are so few words
That never grow old
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
So come on and sing out
Let our anthem grow loud
There is one great love
So come on, So come on
So come on and sing out
Let our anthem grow loud
There is one great love
Oh, there is one great love
Oh, there is one great love, Jesus
