It is yet to be demonstrated that God = Santa Claus is NOT a category error (or at the very least, special pleading). They both:
-Perform miracles.
-Receive and answer prayers.
-Are invisible and mysterious.
-Reward the faithful.
-Punish the guilty.
-Watch over the actions of their adherents.
-Keep a record of those actions.
-Have powers that defy the constrictions of time and space.
A difference that makes no difference IS no difference.
