are you still affected by it today?

way to make silly assumptions. traumatic? i enjoyed santa a lot. but i enjoyed much more discovering that "santa" was my dad going to work every day. found a store card statement with my bycicle listed on it, and the payment due. gave me a new respect for the guy.

i was raised catholic also, which in my view is a whole extra set of fairytales, and i don't plan to teach them to my kids either. i don't have those beliefs any more and have no reason to perpetuate them on another generation.

there is a huge body of mythology and fairytales out there to help us understand the world and i plan to teach it to my kids as such-- as myths. not as literal truths. i also plan to teach them science from an early age.

my question for you (as a way to retort with assumptions) is this: do you feel so threatened by people's rejection of santa claus that you need to believe they are shellshocked or something?
