school help: I have a few questions about religon. - Help.com

Santa Clause does not have anything to do with the spirit of Christianity nor the reasons that Christians celebrate Christmas. Santa, and elf’s, and reindeer come from a tradition that started in Europe a long time ago…and according to Christian belief Jesus was not a “zombie” but the Son of God resurrected and very much alive

Jesus is alive; whereas zombies are mindless creatures, basically reanimated corpses. So that’s not the best way to put it.

For one you should not call yourself a christian if you are not just to escape a perceived bias. A Christian is someone who has placed thier faith in Jesus’ dying on the cross for their sins and then seeks to know Him better and learn from Him. Santa has nothing to do with Christmas. I believe the Catholic church named him a saint, hence Santa, because he was a selfless man who gave gifts to those he could.
Zombies are made up creatures and Jesus was resurrected to full life. Which to a Christian means that He has defeated death and so has the Christian who has faith in Him.

I’ve got a bloody shotgun and 2 hours of poorly focused video that we’ll make you think twice about calling zombies. Man that was a rought night at the mall.

Now we know why he’s call cynicle… Lol!

Bet that involved a bottle of something.

Holy water, but the shotgun was really much more effective.

How would a shotgun be affective on something dead? Haven’t you seen the movie Mummy.

santa clause has to do with christianity because a man named chris chringle (aka santa claus) would give presents to poor children on jesus’s birthday he was a very religious man

Chris Kringle was a religeous man and probably would be very dissapointed with today’s version of “Santa” taking away from the Christ in Christmas and the commercial industries you gotta have this and that attitude as well as the general population which seems to go right along with it. The focus has been shifted from giving to others to getting as much as you can. :(

I get more joy in giving and everyone I know does as well so it’s not gone.

Good. I hope it never dissapears. :)

I think the whole santa clause thing had to do with (as someone was saying before) a good man who gave toys to poor children. I am not sure what his name was, but he was Italian, and ’santa’ means ’saint’ in english. That is why people call him Saint Nick.

Easter is a pegan holiday, biggest pegan holiday of the year. and also jesus said “eat this bread it is my flesh, drink this wine it is my blood” hey was a cannibal. i just htought id point that out. then he died (was murdered) and came back (zombie) he was a pegan, and in some cases, when the dead come back, he was a demon

Ummm, I think the flesh and blood thing is a metaphor!

It wasn’t, he was saying it in the sense that eat/drink this, it is my flesh/blood so you will always have a part of me in you. but really, i guess it is all on how you take it.

I guess, but cannibals eat people, and that is not what happened so there were no cannibalistic actions at all.

Actually, communion is meant to be a reminder, not a ritual. It says that every time (not just at church) you drink the juice of the fruit of the vine, you are to remember how He shed His blood for us; not that you should drink blood. And the bread is a reminder of how His body was broken, and how much suffering He endured for us. These are reminders; everyday, ordinary parts of our lives that are given meanings so that we will be reminded of who we are and who we have pledged our lives to. It’s like a Post-it note that God puts right in front of us so that we will not become so absorbed in the things of this world that we forget that we are in this world, not of this world. If you are not a Christian, these reminders are not going to have any meaning for you.

respect others belief. You don’t have to believe what they do in order to appreciate they have their own perpective on life other than what your perpective is. I’ll tell ya if everyone would just let people be who they are the world would be a better place.

lol, i think santa claus=st. nick so saint=something to do with heaven/god=christian
and the whole easter thing..i guess it is technically jesus zombie day..haha

what are the seven sins
