Santa Claus is clearly what Jesus would be if he
was real. Nobody would ever consider nailing this omnibenevolent deity to anything, would they? Nor does he hold anything against you longer than a year. Steve James

The Christmas Story
- Luke - Chapter 1 (Not a joke, just a reminder of the Christmas story)
5.There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea..........
26. And
in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of
Galilee, named Nazareth.
27. To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was
Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's
name was Mary.
28. And the
angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the
Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29. And when she saw him,
she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of
salutation this should be.
30. And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found
favour with God.
31. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring
forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32. He shall be great, and shall
be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the
throne of his father David:
33. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob
for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34. Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a
man?
35. And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come
upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore
also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of
God. ...
37. For with God nothing shall be impossible. 38. And Mary said,
Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And
the angel departed from her.
