Santa Claus
#23
RE: Santa Claus
Nice thread. I always wonder where tradition stops and indoctrination begins, in this case the information has shown the point of change was the 1920s when santa went from a legend to a capitalist god. I see santa as a parallel figure to jesus, it's not hard to see the similarities. My mother does carry on the tradition even though we are all grown up, and I can't say whether my kids will go through it or not. If it were up to me I would say no more christmas altogether, I know it sounds harsh but where do we break the indoctrination and start making our own traditions? If it doesn't happen here with us then when do you assume we will step out of the shadow of this religious holiday that has been mutated into a giant money-grab for corporations that exploit millions children around the world, like some sort of reverse santa claus.
