Santa hadn't arrived in my country when I was little. But I certainly had a stronger belief in the Christkind and the Easter bunny than I had in god. The former brought cool presents after all, while the latter didn't do anything at all.

Also, my parents didn't drag me to church that often. Christmas and Easter was about all. My most vivid memories are of freezing my ass off at christmas and falling asleep during mass.
