Santa can't be a new Calvinist without a Servetus to slaughter.
Since his conversion I doubt that he'll be needing much of his gear, including the sleigh.
I nominate Rudolf for the killing celebration. His bright red nose may have served in the past, but now it's just a nuisance.
And let the elves join together in song...
"Rudolf with your nose so bright, won't you fill my tums tonight..."

You have a point there. The original St. Nicholas was a bishop who gave gifts to poor children. Christian Charity. But Clement Moore's Santa Claus, the jolly old elf, gave presents to children WHO HAD BEEN GOOD. So, I guess there's some logic to what the article in the link is saying about him.

Claus reportedly further repented of his merits-based system of giving out gifts, and will now instead select people to receive presents based on nothing good or bad within themselves, but solely on his mercy.
Fabulous!

Not smart to use santa to make your kids behave.

I like the idea of keeping a few gift-wrapped empty boxes with your kids' names on them under the Christmas tree. If they misbehave, pick one and throw it in the fire...
