Evidence for Santa Clause, A La Gaz

[_Mercury]

So its official, using the methods of Gaz I know with every fiber of my being that Santa is real. It says so in these christmas "scriptures":

Here Comes Santa Claus

Here comes Santa Claus!
Here comes Santa Claus!
Right down Santa Claus Lane!
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
are pulling on the reins.
Bells are ringing, children singing;
All is merry and bright.
Hang your stockings and say your prayers,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

Here comes Santa Claus!
Here comes Santa Claus!
Right down Santa Claus Lane!
He's got a bag that is filled with toys
for the boys and girls again.
Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle,
What a beautiful sight.
Jump in bed, cover up your head,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

So, as this CLEARLY states santa is coming to deliver presents, etc the only LOGICAL choice is to be good this christmas season and do what the great Clause says. Otherwise you'll be getting coal in your stocking.

Lets move onto the existence of flying reindeer:

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Authors: Robert May (lyrics), Johnny Marks (music)

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw him,
you would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then all the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
you'll go down in history!

So, clear as day there. Rudolph exists because someone put those words down on paper, therefore it has to be true. No argument is needed. By just posting these verses you can undoubtedly see the logic in me believing they exist.

So gaz, using the same logic I just displayed I want you to realise the same reassoning comes into play when you post the verses sprouted from joes and (supposed) jewish imagination. By doing so it shows your unwilling to actually craft a response to our points but instead "run home to mommy".

Get the drift?

Ah hell, probably not.

Hurm....

No fulfillment of prophecy....

No edification.....


No knowledge gained.....

Must just be good songs that make you feel happy.

Thanks for shareing, and by-the-way, nice choice on the avatar. very appropriate. He also chose to be a law unto himself. Did they ever end up shooting his corpse out of a cannon like he wanted them to?

What are you talking about!?!?

I got presents from santa as a kid. Proof positive right there for fulfillment of prophecy.
No edification?!?! All is merry and bright. IT SAYS IT RIGHT THERE!!!

[_Mercury]

The irony of this statement is too shocking for me to comment on, mostly becauseim pissing myself right now.

They did actually. It was orchestrated by Johnny depp.

HST was a genious and I will not stand idly by while you mock him openly.

To PROVE to you that your argument is flawed, here are some HST "scriptures", posted in true Gaz fashion in response to an argument since the whole point of this is to show you the absurdity of doing so:

A word to the wise is infuriating.
Hunter S. Thompson

America... just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable.
Hunter S. Thompson

Call on God, but row away from the rocks.
Hunter S. Thompson

Going to trial with a lawyer who considers your whole life-style a Crime in Progress is not a happy prospect.
Hunter S. Thompson

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.
Hunter S. Thompson

I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours.
Hunter S. Thompson

I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me.
Hunter S. Thompson

If I'd written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people - including me - would be rotting in prison cells from Rio to Seattle today. Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism.
Hunter S. Thompson

It was the Law of the Sea, they said. Civilization ends at the waterline. Beyond that, we all enter the food chain, and not always right at the top.
Hunter S. Thompson

No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master.
Hunter S. Thompson

Publishers are notoriously slothful about numbers, unless they're attached to dollar signs - unlike journalists, quarterbacks, and felony criminal defendants who tend to be keenly aware of numbers at all times.
Hunter S. Thompson

That was always the difference between Muhammad Ali and the rest of us. He came, he saw, and if he didn't entirely conquer - he came as close as anybody we are likely to see in the lifetime of this doomed generation.
Hunter S. Thompson

The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over.
Hunter S. Thompson

The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.
Hunter S. Thompson

The person who doesn't scatter the morning dew will not comb gray hairs.
Hunter S. Thompson

The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good reason.
Hunter S. Thompson

There is nothing more helpless and irresponsible than a man in the depths of an ether binge.
Hunter S. Thompson

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.
Hunter S. Thompson

You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug, especially when its waving a razor sharp hunting knife in your eye.
Hunter S. Thompson

There. Now that that's posted the truth is listed clearly to you right there. No wiggle room. I'm right and your wrong...right?

I love good quotes, and theres some real gems in there.

Contrary to some peoples beliefs around here, I do enjoy regular things. I just understand that worldly things are temporary and fade with fashion. Placeing the rotting on a pedestal is silly.

I quote scripture because its fact and is a solid foundation. And I do not claim that mere mortals cannot occasionally speak truth as well.

They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of Him as somewhat of a recluse.
Emily Dickinson
US poet (1830 - 1886)

God gives every bird its food, but He does not throw it into its nest.
J. G. Holland

If God lived on earth, people would break his windows.
Jewish Proverb

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.
Mother Teresa
Indian (Albanian-born) humanitarian & missionary (1910 - 1997)

I always admired atheists. I think it takes a lot of faith.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, Northern Exposure, Seoul Mates, 1991

Whatever God's dream about man may be, it seems certain it cannot come true unless man cooperates.
Stella Terrill Mann

Truth is the secret of eloquence and of virtue, the basis of moral authority; it is the highest summit of art and life.
Henri-Frédéric Amiel

Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
Henry David Thoreau
US Transcendentalist author (1817 - 1862)

History is a voice forever sounding across the centuries the laws of right and wrong. Opinions alter, manners change, creeds rise and fall, but the moral law is written on the tablets of eternity.
James A. Forude

Morality, like art, means drawing a line someplace.
Oscar Wilde
Irish dramatist, novelist, & poet (1854 - 1900)

Perfection of moral virtue does not wholly take away the passions, but regulates them.
Saint Thomas Aquinas
Italian saint & theologian (1225 - 1274)

All sects are different, because they come from men; morality is everywhere the same, because it comes from God.
Voltaire
French author, humanist, rationalist, & satirist (1694 - 1778)

I like this one from Ambrose Bierce:

FAITH, n. Belief without evidence in what is told by one who speaks without knowledge, of things without parallel.
