As a Human Physiology and Anatomy Instructor to nursing students, I get to teach them the truth! I'm doing my best to stop the misinformation.
@damnyak
Funny you say that you wanted to be like Santa, I did too. And now I'm starting to look like him. :?

I don't know if anyone said this yet but the worst thing to me is that they are censoring the original artists work.

100 + years of perfection and they want to edit it. Shame on them. That is the classic of classic Christmas stories. It is a poetic story. What will they replace it with to keep it poetic. Ridiculous :(

Agreed, one cannot simply edit a classic just because they disagree with certain elements of the story.

It's all over the radio up here, driving me batty all day. Priorities are out of whack anymore...In Canada, they'll give junkies and crack addicts free needles and crack pipes but SANTA CLAUS MUST BE CHANGED. :crazy:

This is a non political forum. But anyone of average intelligence can figure out where this is coming from.
Ultimately, I would say the publisher is nothing more than a well-meaning idiot. Sad to say, but often more harm is caused by the "do-gooders" of this world than anyone else.

What's next? Are they going to make Santa thinner so as not to promote obesity? Perhaps give him a tan because it is more socially acceptable? Why not give him a pierced eyebrow to fit in with todays trends too. All a bunch of BS. Don't frig with my Santa please and thankyou.
And, for the record, I totally dig that Santa meer. I am also a Christmas nerd.

Sorry kids, Santa will have to make his deliveries this year without his reindeer. PETA is claiming animal cruelty.

:crazy:

Several months ago I heard on the radio news that Santa was under fire for his weight and in need of a new look since so many kids are over weight. So, yes apparently Santa will be losing weight in the coming years as well.

It amazes me how the poem doesn't even mention cigarettes yet still some psycho thinks it could lead children to smoking cigarettes. Cause we all know pipes are the gateway drug to cigarettes and all the kids these days are dying to smoke a pipe. Some people's stupidity astounds me.

And Santa Claus made it down the chimney real quick.

Cuz the poor SOB became anorexic.

And a needle for Jack cos he can't quit the smack,

And new pills for Jill cos she works on her back.

But dear god don't let Santa light up his briar

Cos tobacco's as evil as Satans own fire!
