    On a related side note, Violent Night with David Harbour as Santa is a new holiday classic to me.

    Every age is too old for Santa. It’s made up. Same with religion.

      I like the angle of “believing” because it’s fun but never really thinking he’s a real physical being.

      There’s a big difference. Zero sane adults actually believe in Santa.

      The Santa tradition, I think, teaches something very important to kids: that they are the ones who need to figure out what’s true and what’s not, even when that disagrees with what trusted authority figures say. Religion doesn’t do that, since there’s never a time when the curtain is pulled back on it.

          My point being that there are great numbers of adults people who still literally believe in the organized religion of their choice. Those people do not “pull back the curtain” for their children when they come of age; they continue to propagate the religion as truth.

    I believe in Santa Claus.

    I don’t believe in good little children.
