If Santa knows if you've been naughty or nice doesn't that equate him to the same ethics, and purposes of God?

The "God of the Bible" has a very fucked up sense of ethics.

It's more fucked up with the Book of Mormon though :-/

They're practically the same though -_- (Same structure, just different beliefs)

No, why would it?

What does Santa do to kids that have been bad, apart from getting them coal? (Not a bad present, in winters decades ago.)

Once saw a guy on tv, thinking in Alaska, who drives around in his truck and gives big slabs of coal and dried fish to his neighbors. A couple of the neighbors said they might have trouble making it through the winter without his gift.

  "God" is far worse than Santa.  God will torture you in hell for eternity.  God will cut a bitch! :trollskull:

DFG recently posted about the Krampus movie, and the folklore of Krampus is the origin of naughty children getting coal for Christmas. Seems Santa and Krampus were companions in folklore, and while St. Nicholas gave rewards of gifts, Krampus gave the coal as well as swattings with birch branch switches. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krampus

That's why I asked. The companion of St Nic here could not only give children a beating with branch switches and hand them salt instead of sweets. He could also take them with him in the bag he used to carry the presents in. And then you were taken away. (Probably to work for the Saint, but that was not clear)

In the late seventies all the scary stuff had to be taken away from Piet. No more punishing power, no more dread, no scare. He changed from one man with power into a flock of quite dumb piets.

Where the original Piet had a scary, powerful side, the new ones lost all that.

(In that light, resistance against zwarte Piet is more than justified. )

Agreed. And yes, the worst thing Santa does these days is bring coal.

Were his actions against naughty or bad children more severe in the past?
