But it is not a FACTUAL institution. Santa Claus is an established social institution too, it just isn't real.
I don't really care what the Catholics believe in or what the Jews believe in or what the Muslims believe in or what the Hindus believe in, I care about what is factually true in the real world. That's where these discussions ultimately fall apart because, at the end of the day, you're more concerned with feeling good than you are in being correct. I'm exactly the opposite.
There's nothing wrong with being happy. You should give it a try some time. :mrgreen:
