every baby born seems to have a giant helping of fairy stories, talking animals, outrageous exaggerations parading as "fact" and an endless stream of cartoons, science fiction and make-believe.

the laws of nature and physics are violated every few seconds in film and tv!

is it surprising that children are not only ignorant of how things really work-but, they don't have patience and an appetite for fact when they get to the schoolroom.

Can you honestly say that wasn't drilled into you every Christmas?

Yes, along with every other fun and exciting thing that we grew up around. I am so happy to be rid of that mentality that everything fun has some hidden agenda to it. I do admit, I held onto a lot of that garbage upon first leaving the organization. Maybe that is why I am so defensive now, because I am tired of people trying to suck the joy out every little thing and make it out to be something that it is not.

IMO the point of the Santa claus myth is getting children's minds prepared for later religious indoctrination.

How so? would you care to elaborate?

Corvin,

I am so sorry to hear you are going through all of this. I replied to one of your post a while back where you spoke of being so happy to come home surprised to see your kids asleep at your house, just because they wanted to be home. Hang in there, your love for your children is evident! They are very fortunate to have a father like you! My thoughts are with you...

I just was wondering what exactly made you think we are out of org christians?

Princess, I was wondering the same thing??? By the way, "not claiming to be Christian here". Always liked that Ghandi quote... "I like your Christ, I don't like your Christians. Your Christians are not at all like your Christ.
