So you can't answer the question that would either damn your God or diminish his power. So you give up. Thansk for the discussion either way. Iwasn't being hostile in any way, I just like discussing this stuff.

Saying I'm "trying" implies some nebulous behaviour behind my discussion which I hope you aren't doing. I just asked a straightforward question.

Thinking about it, if Santa is dependent on belief, really, kids only have Santa for like max five years. After that, either folder siblings or other children destroy that myth.Its a really short time period, really.
Like Gods that have power dependent on how fervently they are worshipped. Santa gets a massive boost every December. Then slips down(up) the chimney again. So it would be Superman overall I guess.

You accused JBL of wrongfully misrepresenting your beliefs but your confessed unbelief of the Lord and Savior as Christ and the creator God reveals so much about you, so I'll bite...........by asking you this, how do you believe that everything you around you in existence came to be?

Its double that. My 13 yr old has only disbeleived Santa this year and questioned him last year. My 11 yr old still believes and mmh yr7 yr old is a true believer.
My sister in law has 6 kids and the younges they stopped beleiving was about 10/11. Same for my sisters kids. You might get the very occasional 9 yr old but in my experience 10-12 is when beleif in Santa is gone.
