    This is a JW site by all appearances: http://www.xanga.com/Holidays (they even link to watchtower.org articles... which is a big no-no!)

    The Very Attributes of God
    have been given to Santa Claus.

    Why ? and by Whom ? Because - SATAN USES "SANTA" -
    TO PROCURE WORSHIP FOR HIMSELF

    Thanks to everyone so far. I know why they did it, but it is hard to explain to others that they actually WOULD. I would certainly never do that to my kids.

    I've looked online and found some of the images posted....this was a very "kid type" cartoon but with a very troubling message. I don't think it came from the borg...no idea where they got it...that is sort of why I thought it might still be around or available on google.

    Its not a big deal...I just wanted some proof to show people why I get messed up sometimes out of nowhere. LOL

    Thanks.

    Would your parents have gotten you to draw something like that, and then kept it to remind you?

    It is true that Satan uses Santa as a disguise because we all know Satan only speaks English! (In other languages, the letters of the 2 names aren't the same.)

    (Another example of American jw ethnocentricity.)

    Randy I suggest you print off all these pics, put them in your shredder, then in your fireplace, and then promptly look through a bunch of photos of pretty winter/XMas pics to replace the bad images in your memory.

    I like that last one with the shadow. Someone Photoshop a pic of the watchtower with a shadow in the shape of the devil!!

    Sorry I wasn't clear...it was a commercially made cartoon but looked very designed for a kid......as opposed to looking adult or artistic. ( I have NO drawing talent so I know it wasn't me LOL)

    It almost looked like they pulled it out of a magazine...it was creased in the center and glossy...maybe they just folded it for storage.

    No idea...but I was pretty young....I guess it's silly really. Thanks again everyone
