Why are so many people who were raised as Christians, turning away from belief in The Supreme Being? Lately, it seems like there has been an explosion of Atheism (especially on the Internet) in Europe and the United States of America (USA). Most of these Atheists are behaving like religious or political zealots. They are vigorously trying to convince the world that all religions are bad. Many of them are not just satisfied with just their own rejection of religious beliefs; they want the whole world to reject religion as well. I believe, that the cause of this sudden rise in Atheism among so many people in Europe and the United States of America; is because of the fantasy, stories, told to them, when they were children. Especially the story of Santa Claus. The 25th of December is supposed to be the day of birth for Jesus Christ; but Santa Clause is more important to the majority of Christian children, rather than Jesus. As children we were told about a jolly fat man called Santa Claus. The first images drawn of him in the 19th century in the USA, showed a big, round Caucasian man with long white hair and a thick white beard. He wore a bright red suit with a broad black belt, and black boots. This Santa Claus did not live among other Human Beings. He lived in the highest place on earth. He lived way up there, in the North Pole. He had helpers called Elves, who made toys during the year. Santa Claus was an all-seeing entity. He could see everything that children all around the world were doing. And he watched them all throughout the year. Children were warned that if they wanted to receive gifts and toys on the 25th of December; then they should be good little children. Because Santa knew if they were being good or bad. So they had better be good for goodness sake 🙂 Santas helpers, the elves were recording everything that the children did; and if they did more bad than good they would not receive any gifts on Christmas. And if they were good then; they would receive toys and other gifts. At the same time when children were being told about Santa Claus; they were also being told about another mysterious entity. They were told about god. They were told that god lived in Heaven. And Heaven was way up there in the sky. They were told that God was All-Seeing; and HE knew everything. He also had helpers like Santa; but HIS helpers were called Angels. When I was a child; it was not unusual to see in many publications drawings of this god who lived in the sky. These drawings of god looked exactly like the pictures of Santa. He was an elderly Caucasian man with a long white beard. These imaged looked exactly the same as the images of god, drawn by Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel. An old Caucasian man with long white hair and a thick white beard. This god who lived in the sky, knew everything that everyone on Earth was doing. HE was All-Seeing and All-Knowing. He knew if people were good or bad. If you did good things you would be rewarded by Him after you died by going to Heaven. If you did bad things you would get punished by being sent to a very bad place, called Hell. This Hell was supposed to be under the ground. Hell was ruled by another mysterious entity called the Devil or Santa er.. I mean Satan. This Devil or Satan was once an Angel of God. He also was living up in the sky. But he decided to not obey God; so he was cast out from Heaven and sent down to live beneath the Earth. He was to stay forever underneath the Earth. And all the bad people would be sent to live with the Devil in Hell when they died. Hell was underground; whereas Heaven was way up there in the sky. But God loved the people of the world very much. HE didn’t want them to go to Hell. So he sent his only begotten son Jesus, to Earth. This son of god, Jesus was sent to Earth in order for him to save the world. Those who believed he was the son of god and followed him were to be saved. But most of the people rejected Jesus and then he was killed. His death was to be the salvation for all those who believed in him. This son of god, was born on the 25 December. The very same day that Santa delivered his gifts. So there was always a very close link between Santa Claus and Christianity in the minds of Christian children. Children were also taught about Easter Eggs and the Easter Bunny. The Easter Eggs festivities is done during the same time period, when this son of the white bearded Caucasian god was killed. Here again is another close link between the stories taught in Christianity; and a fantasy tale about rabbits and Easter eggs. In addition, children were told about the Tooth Fairy, who gave them a coin for placing their old tooth under their pillow at night. Children trust their parents and all adults. They sincerely believe everything that their parents and adults tell them. What these parents and other adults, who have been telling these little lies to the children don’t realise is that; NOT ALL parents have been telling these lies to their children. And one day the children who believe in Santa and the Tooth Fairy and Easter bunnies etc. will meet these other children. These other children who were not raised to believe in these fantasies stories, will laugh at and ridicules the children who sincerely believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. When they finally realise that there is no such thing as Santa or the Tooth Fairy or the Easter Bunny, they will feel very embarrassed and foolish. In time they will feel very foolish for ever believing these stories. They will wonder why their parents and other adults had lied to them. Many of them will begin to question and doubt everything that their parents ever told them. In time they will begin to have serious doubts about what they were told about that god, who lives in the sky. They will wonder if those stories about Heaven, Hell, Angels, and Satan are really real; or is it the same lie as the Santa Claus, and Easter Bunny stories. These lies about Santa Claus, Easter Bunnies and Easter eggs all closely related to very important dates in the Christian calendar. Christmas and Easter are very significant in Christian belief. But along with these significant Christian traditional holidays; are also these fantasy stories about Easter eggs, Easter Bunnies and Santa Claus. These fantasy stories of Santa Claus and Easter eggs has caused harm to the spiritual development of young Christians. If you think these fantasy stories were innocently created; then you don’t understand the enemies of Humanity. It is no accident that the word Santa can be easily changed to Satan. I prefer to refer to this satanic creation as, Satan Claws instead of Santa Claus. The whole story of Santa Claus and his elves was concocted by people who were very knowledgeable about religion. Many centuries before, their ancestors had become disobedient to G-D’s Commands and started to use their knowledge to trick and deceive Humanity. This Santa Claus story was intended to cause problems among Gentile who were Christians. The Santa story’s main purpose was to undermine Christianity. Every since this Satan story er….. I mean Santa story, gained popularity it has cause havoc among the Christian community. This fable about Santa Claus really gained popularity among Christians in the past 150 years or so. In the past century, when these Christian children who had believed in Santa became adults, many stopped having a sincere belief and trust in the Creator. But, they, kept their religion doubts to themselves. Despite their doubts, many of them continued to tell the same stories about Santa, and the god in the sky, to their own children. They said to themselves, “I was told the same story when I was a child and I turned out okay.” “It is nothing but harmless fun for kids to believe in Santa.” But in fact, these fantasy stories are not harmless nor okay. It is not harmless fun. These fantasy tales have turned many Christian adults into religious hypocrites. They still go to their Churches and outwardly follow their religious traditions. They still participated in religious activities. They still professed belief in The Creator and Christianity. But their obedience to the moral and spiritual commands of Christianity, have been considerably weakened. They have accepted many things in their lives, that are in direct contradiction to the Commands of The Creator. Their respect for the moral teachings of their religion have been weakened. That is why many of them can still support Donald Trump, and still claim to be good Christians; after his disgusting remarks were revealed recently; in a video tape. Many of these religious hypocrites tell lies, commit fornication, adultery, harbour racial hatred for other races, secretly have abortions, and do other evil things; without any thought of the consequences. They really don’t believe in the Day of Judgement. They pay lip service to religious beliefs, while secretly behaving like non religious people. They discriminate against others, cheat on their spouses, steal, lie, abused drugs and alcohol, commit homosexual acts etc. Eventually some got tired of their hypocrisy and openly began to admit,that they no longer believed in God. All this is happening, because parents think it is harmless to tell their children that the Santa Claus story is true. Telling lies to young, impressionable children, has serious consequences. STOP LYING TO YOUR CHILDREN. As I said before, telling children lies about Santa Claus, may seem like an innocent and harmless thing, but it is not. A lie, is a lie, is a lie. No matter how you may try to make it look appealing, it is still a lie. The majority of argument used by Atheists against religious beliefs is nothing more than an argument against what they were taught as children in Christianity. They try to lump all religions into with what they were taught when they were young. They erroneously assume that the teachings of Judaism and Al-Islam are the same as what they were taught about The Creator in Christianity. They normally say things like religion is a ‘fairy tale,’ and god is the ‘magic man in the sky.’ All related to the fantasy tales they were taught about Christianity during their childhood. Their arguments against religion seems to be anger at the fantasies that they once believed in as children. The majority of them never studied the intelligent teachings of Christianity. Many of them were just ‘Jesus Christ’ Christians. Everything in Christianity to them was all about Jesus Christ. Or I should say, those fake images and pictures of a Caucasian Jesus of Nazareth that was first painted many centuries ago in Europe. To the majority of them; Christianity was, “accept Jesus Christ as your lord and saviour or go to hell.” They had a fixation on the image of a Caucasian Jesus. Many of them are the ones who see images of a Caucasian Jesus on water marks on billboards, in the dirt on windows, the topping of pizzas, cloud formations, stains on walls, etc. etc. Once these unlearned, Christians gained some knowledge and became more enlightened on the scientific principles of the world; they felt ashamed that they ever believed in those things. Now they have become fervent Atheists. They claim that Life after Death doesn’t exist because it cannot be proven. No one who dies can come back and tell us that there is Life after Death. We who believe; knows it exist because of what has been Revealed to us by our Creator. In the Revelations that came to Moses, Jesus, Muhammed and all the Prophets; *G-D tells humanity that there is Life after our earthly death. These Revelations tells Mankind things that we would never have discovered by our own human intelligence. Before these Revelation came, Mankind worshiped the creation as their gods. They instinctively knew that they were not responsible for all the goodness that surrounded them. The water to quench their thirst, the plants and fruits and animals that they ate to nourish their bodies. Humans had been created with a desire to show gratitude. They wanted to be thankful for what they had. So our primitive ancestors, worshiped the Sun, the Moon, the stars, the lightening, the thunder, the mountains and other Human Beings as gods. They knew nothing about The True Author, The Creator of all creation. Revelation from The One True Creator is how Mankind first became acquainted with HIM. HE Revealed that Human Beings and everything else in creation was created by The Master-Creator. We belong to HIM. We are HIS property. HE has placed something in every Human Being that causes us to respond to HIS Truth whenever we hear it. It is called our soul. And our souls always recognize our Master’s Words. This is why those of us who believe in the Hereafter knows for certain that it does exist. Our life in this world is meaningless without a Final Day of Accountability. A Judgment Day to settle our accounts. A Day when we will received punishment or rewards for our behaviour in this Life. There has to be a consequence for humans who commit all types of evil against their fellow human beings. G-D has Revealed that everything we do; small or big is being recorded by Angels. Every Human Being has at least two Angels with us at all times. One records all the good things we do. The other records all the bad things we do. There is nothing that we do, that is not being recorded. On the Day of Judgment we pray that our good deeds outweigh our bad deeds. Here are a few verses from the final Revelation given to Humanity from our Guardian-Lord Creator. With the Name of The One True G-D, The Merciful Benefactor, The Merciful Redeemer Woe to man! What has made him stubbornly reject The One G-D. (Does man ever consider) out of what material (G-D) created him? From a sperm-drop: HE has created him, and then shapes him in due proportions; Then does HE make his path (in life) smooth for him; Then HE causes him to die, and puts him in his grave; Then, when it is HIS Will, HE will raise him up (again). By no means has he fulfilled what G-D has commanded him. Then let man then consider (the sources of) his food, (and how **WE provide it): For that WE pour forth water in abundance, And WE open the Earth in fragments, And produce therein corn, And Grapes and nutritious plants, And Olives and Dates, And enclosed Gardens, thick with lofty trees, And fruits and herbage,- For use and convenience to you and your cattle. At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise (of Resurrection),- That Day (of Judgment) a man shall run from his own brother, And from his mother and his father, And from his wife and his children. Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others. Some faces that Day will be beaming, with happiness Laughing, rejoicing at the good news And other faces that Day will be dust-stained, Darkness will cover them: Such will be the Rejectors of The One True G-D, the doers of wickedness. (Verses from the Holy ***Qur’an) *G-D instead of god which spelt backwards is dog. This is not a respectful spelling of a term to be used in reference to the Lord-Creator of the Heavens and Earth. The English spelling of god was created by the same satanic minds who invented Santa Claus . **WE, US, OUR are references in the Holy Qur’an to all of the forces of power (Angels) under the control of The Creator. They manage all creation.They are totally obedient to The All-Mighty G-D,and obeys HIS Commands without question . *** In the 7th century the Prophet Muhammed of Arabia received the Revelation called the Holy Qur’an from the Angel Gabriel over a 23 years time period. Just like the majority of Arabs at that time; Muhammed did not know how to read nor write. He is referred to in the Qur’an as being “unlettered.” www.IslamiCity.com/QuranSearch/ ; www.newafricaradio.com / READ ALSO: https://chiniquy.wordpress.com/2015/07/01/the-all-mighty-creator-does-not-have-a-son/
