or house, otherwise she doesn't see them. She can't wrap her head around the idea that Jesus was born in the Middle East and had brown skin. She only see Jewish people like Bibi, who is a European strain Jewish person, the majority of whom came to the Middle East after World War II. Kelly is just one more of the dumb asses holding anchor chairs at Fox News.

I guess the jury is out on Jesus as to whether or not he really existed, but Santa Claus (not to be confused with St. Nicholas), definitely fictional.

Are two people who would hate Fox news with a passion, they would hate what you do so much, even they
would be angry and mad and upset, they would hate your race baiting, your homophobic tendencies, they would
hate your manipulative ways and how you try to make people be against health care for poor people, just so the
sponsors of your tv show will be happy.

They would be happy if people gave to the poor, they would be happy if people were nice, if they lived in the
same era, they would be friends, they may even hold hands, maybe even kiss, who knows?

They certainly wouldn't like what you do for a living, but they would respect that's its your choice.

St. Nick is from Greece, I believe. Jesus was born in I/P.

Olive skin and dark hair are a fair guess for both....

30. Actually - St Nicholas was a Christian Bishop in what is now modern day Turkey
Fri Dec 13, 2013, 10:50 AM
Dec 2013
Born in Patara, a land that is part of present-day Turkey, circa 280, St. Nicholas was a Christian bishop who helped the needy. After his death, the legend of his gift-giving grew. St. Nicholas transformed into the legendary character called Santa Claus, who brings Christmas presents to children around the world.

He lost both of his parents as a young man and reportedly used his inheritance to help the poor and sick. A devout Christian, he later served as bishop of Myra, a city that is now called Demre.

Reputation

There are many legends about St. Nicholas of Myra. One story tells how he helped three poor sisters. Their father did not have enough money to pay their dowries and thought of selling them into servitude. Three times, St. Nicholas secretly went to their house at night and put a bag of money inside. The man used the money so that one of his daughters could marry. On the third visit, the man saw St. Nicholas and thanked him for his kindness. He also reportedly saved three men who were falsely imprisoned and sentenced to death

In America, St. Nicholas went through many transformations and eventually Sinter Klaas became Santa Claus. Instead of giving gifts on December 6, he became a part of the Christmas holiday. In the 1820 poem "An Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas" by Clement Clarke Moore, he is described as a jolly, heavy man who comes down the chimney to leave presents for deserving children and drives a sleigh pulled by flying reindeer. The cartoonist Thomas Nast added to the St. Nicholas legend with an 1881 drawing of Santa as wearing a red suit with white fur trim. Once a kind, charitable bishop, St. Nicholas had become the Santa Claus we know today.

The sexism overfloweth in the Santa a Claus myth, what with Mrs. Claus not even having a first name.
No wonder Santa is sooo white!

..except for "being good", which we should just come to expect as part of society.

If Santa would, instead, allow these kids to grap the bottom rung of the economic ladder, we'd be so much better off. How could this be accomplished? Obviously by giving presents to business owners, who could then allow these kids an opportunity at an entry level wage.
