*Bold added by me* I think belief is also a requirment of your source book?
But I agree you shouldn't remain infantile ..... I'm hoping you have grown up enough to realise your belief in santa was indoctrination ..... not far to go then
What's your point? God exists, so yes I do believe God exists. Adding those words doesn't the nature of what I said. Again, I would say that remaining infantile by believing in Santa Clause is not analogous. There is good reason to believe in one and little to no reason to believe in the modern conception of Santa Clause. It's like saying you should grow up & stop believing in the existence of unicorns, and hopefully you'll also eventually give up your belief in the existence of horses as well. Nonsense...
