The Santa Cult
No, we're not trying to get on the naughty list or call out Santa (who is literally real).
But Santa is a springboard for talking about "myths we live by" vs. the "myths we must believe are literal truth" frame of Christianity.
Parents around the world bring the myth of Santa to life every year for their children in a ritual fashion.
(I'm 50 years old and my mom still sends me packages marked "from the Elves")
Santa shows how powerful and inspiring a myth that is (some people say) not "literally true" can impact and enrich our everyday lives.
