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.
I see that you do, but understsnd that no man has the power to "damn God or diminish his power", but it was entertaining seeing you try however.

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

Ultimately I think Superman's story at least for me personally has more weight. Though if it was based on children at Christmas then Santa has a much greater level of meaning.

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.

Your question doesn't make a lot of sense, your question was answered but as with a lot of people when that answer is not w3hst you want to hear then you sccuse the person that you asked then question of not answering it, also you tried to set an idea of what my personal beliefs are of my God based on a yes or no scenario, you claim a form of innocence in your conversation but you are obviously seeking to play games with people.
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?

I understand that you need an hour to think up your answer, again understandable that you are entrapped in what passes as your own screwed up "logic", but go ahead and take your time, Lol.

I'm buddies with Scot on fb messenger and I can confirm it's indeed his regular hobby.
He's not trolling you or buying time for himself, law

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.

Okay thanks mate, honestly not lying though. I practice for a minimum 4 hours a day plus about 2 hours studying music theory. That's a routine I have, half when I wake up in the morning and the other half just before bedtime.
