Maybe it's implying that you can't catch him putting the presents under your tree.

God.

It is supposed to be the idea of safety watching over you so the big bad monsters can't get you. A Childish idea for children. One of the many aspects of God that you can find in religion, safety.

OT: Don't take me for some religious nut, I am not, I just have a lot of respect for religious teachings.

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

Santa Claus is coming...

To town.


Frightening stuff, that.

Santa Claus, is just supposed to be a way of communicating what God is to children in a way that they can understand. It is also a way of indoctrinating children into religion whilst they're young but let's not get into that.

The main idea of Christmas is celebrating God and that is why we have Santa Claus, so even those who know nothing of Jesus and his followers can rejoice at his coming.

This is, obviously, all my opinion, but I am sure it is one many others agree with and share.

I am in a thoughtful mood today.

He sees you all year round to make sure you're behaving. It's to show the scope of his overseeing powers.
