has anyone used to believe that Santa Clause is real (the heavily-bearded fat man in red suit)?

Question

what was your reaction when you first found out that there's really no Santa Clause, and the ones that were giving you presents were actually just your parents?

by the way, when I first found out, I was very disappointed. I could say that that's my first experience of disappointment. LOL

Answer 1

Bible doesn't speak of such things...it has no significant value at all...Nothing instead of waisting time........Actually Santa Claus is a mythical figure, his creation is based in part on a great Christian man named Saint Nicholas of Myra, who lived in the 4th century. Nicholas was born to Christian parents who left him an inheritance when they died, which he distributed to the poor

Answer 2

I can honestly say that as a child, I always had my doubts. I was about 6 years old when I finally concluded that a fat man with a bunch of flying woodland animals could not possibly travel around the planet and deliver presents to the good boys and girls, and coal to the naughty ones. It's totally illogical. Plus, "Santa" used the same wrapping paper as my mom and his handwriting was eerily similar. But no, I wasn't sad or disappointed, nor did I feel "lied to" by my parents. They were just trying to cater to my childhood fantasies. I think it's fun to believe.

Answer 3

Santa Claus is for little ones, who somewhat has been badly effected in formative years, by potential of believing in Santa? i'm specific no person ended up mentally disturbed or in disaster in later existence. Santa did not replace Jesus for Christians, Christmas continues to be a social gathering for the delivery of Christ...as a Roman Catholic we celebrate with the addition of hour of darkness mass and prayer. the sole problem with santa, is the certainty that this fantasy icon has been used as a motor vehicle for consumerism by potential of people who money in on it. yet isn't that usually the concern in a capitalistic society? even although, devoid of loose business enterprise and capitalism how could united states of america of america fare? not nicely, i think. All in all, for little ones I include the thought of santa..the little ones love the entire theory of him, and that i of course additionally venerate Christmas as a holy day, a kin day, and an afternoon for a prepare of humble generosity. this is genuine value even although, is it being the day that marks the nativity of Jesus. God bless.

Answer 4

i still believe in Santa (st.Nickolas) my older sister kinda ruined it for me i was ten she was 12 one year she decided to show me where the stocking stuffers were. then on Christmas day i found that "Santa" used the same wrapping paper as my parents i was kinda sad i began to cry a lil. but there's still a lil girl that stills believes in Santa and the Easter bunny and tooth fairy.

Answer 5

My parents never really told me that Santa wasn't real (kinda figured it out on my own)... they just stopped given my presents from 'Santa'... which sucks cause now it's one less present every year.

Answer 6

I always suspected that there wasn't a santa.

I liked to believe in him, but the thought of a fat man doing all that stuff in one night puzzled me.

I found out by seeing my dad eat the cookies lol.

Answer 7

Santa's a pedophile.

Answer 8

I wasn't all that surprised, I was an early skeptic. I long ago learned that half of what children are told is BS.
