Yes there is a Santa Claus. I see him at every mall, street corner, and bar everywheres I go. Sometimes he ever has his elves and his raindeer with him. Sometimes Mrs. Claus is there too making sure her husband is doing his job. ::)

Of course there is a Santa Claus.  He's the giving spirit in all of us.  My son is 15, has known there wasnt an actual PERSON Santa since he was 7, but every year he still gets a stocking and every year he still gets gifts with the Santa tag on it.  If you ask him, he'll tell you there IS a Santa...she's a 5'2" (and a half) woman that goes by MOM the rest of the year :)

I agree. I remember my cousin telling me that rudolphs nose lit up our whole driveway and i really believed her. Of course I was only about  nine or ten years old when stayed up all night and santa never showed. When I got married and had my own children I told them there was not santa

Way to point out the obvious, Santa Claus is just a symbol, within us we are all 'Santa Claus' the love and affection we show each other by giving gifts, that is what makes Christmas, we are all Santa Claus.

There's exactly zero evidence supporting the opinion that December 25th is some demi-god name "jesus".

"Christian missionaries frequently sought to stamp out pagan practices by building churches on the sites of pagan shrines or by associating Christian holidays with pagan rituals (eg. linking Christmas with the celebration of the winter solstice)."--Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Encyclopedia. Merriam Webster. 2000. p. 1211



the name says it all Christ = Jesus, it is NOT Merry Santmas ... LOL !



It's winter solstice, not the mass of christ, (despite the cultural theft by xtians).

I don't take the religious concepts seriously; I take the perpetuation of falsehoods more seriously.

No more so than you're saying there is no "Santa" however, I haven't asserted that there "is no jesus", (I have doubted the supernatural claims attributed to the mythical figure though).


for me saying fake fat man with a beard its like saying there is no jesus...



Exactly, so that is your being disrespectful of the beliefs of others.


so please save your self from embarrassment... you sir are disrespecting... admit that...


There's nothing to be embarrassed about; I'm not being hypocritical since I've been skeptical of both mythical ideas.

I don't "cast out" anyone, I question assertions.  In this instance, I would raise the question of supporting the claim from someone who asserted
"santa", (or "jesus"), exists.  Unless evidence can be produced to support either claim, both are dubious claims.

dude stop with an act... its ok to make mistakes.... why you take me so seriously just because you assume i have no feelings? dude you dont even know me how would you judge me like that.. just some writing on the internet?  we all dont know every ones intentions when talking through a forum..

come on..  you doubted about this saying "no jesus"... yes skeptical so that means you dont know if its a fact you assumed... yeah you may have some knowledge about the bible and tried to explain things from your point of view but dont accept the fact some will agree. it doesnt matter the fact is you disrespecting pple...

 i wasnt trying to disrespect others beliefs so stop saying i am. im just statin the fact like everyone here.. falcon9 you got some serious issues you need to calm down and relax a bit... im not trying to pick a fight here and never was...

im focusing on my part making money here and other sources i have... this isnt the only place i can make money.... but I like fusion cash and im stayin until i move out of america... you can argue with me here through the forum  im gonna continue to make Cash Money !!!!!

@ falcon9 dude stop with an act...



What "act"?



its ok to make mistakes.... why you take me so seriously just because you assume i have no feelings?



Neither assumption is correct; I don't take your ideas seriously and your feelings have no bearing on my replies.



dude you dont even know me how would you judge me like that.. just some writing on the internet?  we all dont know every ones intentions when talking through a forum..



I've already indicated that I don't know you when you assumed I 'hated you'.  That was a judgemental error on your part, which makes your assumptions about judging you ironic.



come on..  you doubted about this saying "no jesus"... yes skeptical so that means you dont know if its a fact you assumed...



In attempting to decipher your inarticulate jumble above, nothing was "assumed" regarding the lack of evidence for supernatural claims related to "jesus".  I've consistently remained skeptical of empty declarations in lieu of evidence or, based upon empty 'faith'.



yeah you may have some knowledge about the bible and tried to explain things from your point of view but dont accept the fact some will agree.



What, are you contending that I don't accept some agreeing with me?  Your sentence is unclear.



it doesnt matter the fact is you disrespecting pple...



I'm not disrespecting "pple", I am questioning the basis of their specious beliefs.  The difference is that a person is not a belief.




i wasnt trying to disrespect others beliefs so stop saying i am. im just statin the fact like everyone here..



You're a hypocrit; message IDs referencing your hypocritical posts can be reposted if wished.  If "statin" that 'there is no santa' is considered to be a "fact", then stating that there is no evidence to support supernatural claims regarding "jesus" must also be considered as factual.



falcon9 you got some serious issues you need to calm down and relax a bit... im not trying to pick a fight here and never was...



Your analysis is unsupported and faulty.  When I post replies, I am calm and relaxed.  This is a debate & discussion forum, rather than characterized as 'picking a fight'.  Your attempts at ad hominem counter-attacks are disregarded as ineffective.



im focusing on my part making money here and other sources i have... this isnt the only place i can make money.... but I like fusion cash and im stayin until i move out of america... you can argue with me here through the forum  im gonna continue to make Cash Money !!!!!



If so, why are you bothering taking ineffective swipes - ego issues?

I do enjoy a good debate however, you haven't provided one thusfar.

False.  You have posted contentious statements which were contended in a forum where that happens, (debate & discuss), which could be characterized as 'dramatic', (and hypocritical).  Whether or not you're having "fun" is immaterial to the context discussed.



you just like to pick on others...



More accurately, I prefer to dispute the baseless claims and 'dramatic' acting like a 'victim', (when you are the one who chose to post what you have in this forum).  Instead of whining about it like a martyr, you have other options.

My signature reads, "Logic ticks people off - isn't that ironic?"  As previously stated, I'm not 'acting'.



in here at FC we just want to have fun and help others making money....



Now you're presuming to speaak for the intent of others?  There are subforums for off-topic and topical discussion about offers and such.  There is also a subforum called D+D, (debate + discuss), which has this prelude "A place to have political, religious, and other divisive discussions. Enter at your own risk!"



you see why no one is listening to you and me now its because they want to get involved with others who just enjoys a pleasant convo...



I've read and replied to a few other people posting in this thread so, your wishful-thinking is inaccurate.



you picked a fight with me



No, I responded to a few contentious posts you made in a debate & discussion forum.



i was not doing any harm just statin the fact on what i said...



Your continued insistance upon being passive-aggressive is of limited interest to me.  Your hypocrisy was commented upon by two separate people and your opinions do not constitute 'facts'.



even tho i was a rasied christian still i have faults like any other human being... 



Alternatively, perhaps you have those faults because you were raised xtian?

This may have arisen from a spelling distinction however, there are legal contracts containing a "santa clause".  As far as "santa claus", this is a derivation of "Sinterklaus", a dutch mythical figure.

No, I wouldn't perpetuate that myth, which means not promoting breaking and entering.

I am much more likely to believe that there was at one time a kindly old man that brought gifts to children and the tale has been exaggerated then to believe in bullshit religious claims. It is more likely that kids having heard of the man giving gifts also wanted gifts and their parents left gifts for them saying they were from him and so on and so on.

It's unclear whether or not the Dutch figure of Sinterklaus, (who purportedly left coins in shoes), ws pre-dated by another variation of the myth.  Either way, the giving and receiving of gifts is a practice which does pre-date current religions.

Your remark is inarticulate.  Presumably, "must have dumb your deigning remarks" was intended as some sort of derrogatory comment however, it was written unintelligibly.




My point exactly, that response seemed beneath you to a simple why question?




Where is your "why" question?  Is it somehow tacitly implied?

By no means would it be, here's the question as I'm sure we agree with the post there is no Santa Claus.
Being in disbelief or being an infidel towards other beliefs surrounding Christmas is there no better choice of teaching
than to have kids follow one who's "breaking and entering," as portrayed by Santa Claus?

Although that's not a "why" question, I'll reiterate that I'm against perpetuating either myth, ("santa" or "jesus"), as both promote delusions.  As previously mentioned, that would mean not encouraging breaking & entering, (nor unfounded religious beliefs).

No said you believed in anything, but to not believe is also mythical.
eg. The atheist God" teaches that he doesn't exist," so in obedience the atheist "preaches that there's no God."

One has to believe in order to accept or deny. Like you said they chose the criminal intent what's your choice?

You are mistaken; there is no "atheist god" since atheists do not believe in any 'gods' by definition.

considered guilty until proven innocent; many like yourself support theoretic (assumed, mythical) evidences.

Yes, they do.  Mine have a basis in reason while the basis of your lies somewhere else.




Disbelief is in fact mythical (no-one believed that the world was round until it was proven).



Your assertions do not apply reasoning; some people 'believed' that the earth was flat.  This proved to be a false belief once evidence was obtained to show that it is an oblate spheroid, (not "round").  Neither "disbelief" nor "belief" are 'mythical' in and of themselves; one can only believe or disbelief _something_ which is mythical.



Like-wise most people are considered guilty until proven innocent; many like yourself support theoretic (assumed, mythical) evidences.



Guilt or innocence isn't 'mythical' either.  Theories are not 'mythical' since this does not encompass the meaning of "mythic".  Look it up for yourself as you do not appear to understand the meaning of that word.



eg. The atheist God" teaches that he doesn't exist," so in obedience the atheist "preaches that there's no God."

Quote

That is an incorrect definition of "atheist".  Many atheists oppose the ignorance of religious believers who choose to believe despite the complete lack of evidence to support their baseless beliefs.  What is being disregarded by atheism in general is a foundationless claim that there is a "god".



To the person who believes in God to do so is to SERVE Satan - the atheist God.



What religious believers choose to believe is of no significant consequence to those who reject such irrationality since atheists generally do not believe in the xtian "satan" either.  As a consequence of rejecting both beliefs, ("god" and "satan"), neither is "served" by atheists.



Simply put there's only two choices right and wrong, believe or disbelief. (Vice versa)



Over-simplification is generally the product of a simple mind.  In this instance, basing what is "right and wrong" and specious religious beliefs isn't rational.  This is due to the process of 'faith' being bereft of reason.  Most atheists 'disbelieve' the baseless claims of religionists because no supporting evidence is provided for such claims.  Conversely, there is no logical requirement to provide evidence for a 'disbelief' because of the inherent logical fallacy of 'proving a negative assertion'.

Belief, (without supporting evidence), is not rational.  For someone to accept the validity of "something", one requires either evidence _or_ "belief".  If acceptence is based upon supporting evidence, no belief is required, (the evidence being sufficient to support the premise).  If acceptance is based upon belief/faith alone, (e.g., a lack of supporting evidence), then one has chosen to make an irrational decision.

Just wanted to give you an opportunity to clarify something there; you assert that "satan", (a xtian conception of an "archangel"), is "the atheist god".  This is despite theological claims that "archangels" aren't defined as "gods" and, that atheists don't "serve" or believe in "gods".  It is possible that you are unable to comprehend that a lack of belief isn't a 'belief' itself.  Regardless, it is fortunate that others can discern the difference.

On the other hand, were "santa" to be affected by a recessionary economy, that might lend circumstantial evidence to his existence.  Conversely, a "santa" which remains unaffected by economic downturns is providing circumstantial evidence of being fabricated.  Rumors that the phrase "santa returns" actually stands for "Sales Alleviating Near Terrible Annual" returns are scandalous.

Falc, I shared an argument not my belief so make no assumption.

In certain religions such as Christian and Islam the atheist is seen as the opposition, to sum it up;
One that serves Satan simply because there's no middle there's either one or the other.

Disbelief - is to reject a belief, why?
Because the individual’s belief lies elsewhere
(Something has to influence disbelief there’s no absence of belief -that's soothsaying, fallacious)

Like I shared in both Christian and Islam there's no middle it's either A or B; God or Satan.

You don't do well responding to the context of a posted reply, do you?  As to your lame attempts at derrogatory remarks; there is no "sidekick" or "Jr." here - there are two separate members of FC who have been successfully challenging your fundie nonsense.



Falc, I shared an argument not my belief so make no assumption.



Your "argument" consisted of making irrational assertions which had no substantiation and stemmed from your religious beliefs.  No assumptions were made as this is based upon your own posted words, (making assumptions unneccessry).



I expressed a simply reasoning that is viewed differently in your eyes and probably Jr's also.



Your remarks were not consistant with "reasoning"; simple or otherwise.  They were merely baseless religious opinions and were challenged as such.  Apparently, you prefer to continue using illogic and nonreasoning instead of refutations using the alternatives.  So be it.



In certain religions such as Christian and Islam the atheist is seen as the opposition, to sum it up;
One that serves Satan simply because there's no middle there's either one or the other.



Since I'm neither xtian nor islamic, the skewed views of these 'religions' do not apply to actual facts.  The cognizant fact in this context is that atheists neither serve nor worship "satan" or any "gods", 'archangels' or stuffed animals.



Disbelief - is to reject a belief, why?



Thos question has already been addressed however, for those who are paying attention: a belief can be rejected, (disbelieved), on the basis of no evidence to support the asserted belief.


Because the individual’s belief lies elsewhere



Not necessarily.  It as possible to hold no unfounded 'beliefs' as it is to hold alternative unfounded beliefs.  Your characterization of fallicious non-reasoning as "reasoning" is a false one.


(Something has to influence disbelief there’s no absence of belief -that's soothsaying, fallacious)



The absence of belief results from the absence of evidence to support that belief.  This is termed as "disbelief", not "soothsaying", (which has a completely different meaning).

 

Like I shared in both Christian and Islam there's no middle it's either A or B; God or Satan.



The skewed belief systems do not apply to me since I'm neither xtian nor islamic, (as previously stated).  Therefore, it is not a matter of "A or B"; option 'C' = not believing either mythology.



You likewise the atheist fall in one or the other



That is faulty 'reasoning'; atheism is not a belief and is not a subset of other beliefs - it is a rejection of those belief systems on the basis of a lack of supportive evidence for the claims made under those beliefs.



you're either hot or cold. It's pitiful to think there's a place for lukewarm.



Your critical thinking skills appear to be absent; there is of course, a range of temperatures between "hot" & "cold" which includes "lukewarm".  The analogy therefore fails and with it, your arguement.

I like how you two report each other, yet still continue posting non-sense in a thread that has nothing to do with your argument. Cut it out or get the ban hammer. Also, if you want to squabble, go make a thread in the Debate and Discuss and you two can continue on without cluttering the off topic board.

Even though he didn't refer to you by 'nym, the context makes it clear he was referring to you too; which makes your comment somewhat ironic.
