It is a wonder they haven't said Santa coming down the children (univited) is a pervert bribing small children with gifts!

The subject is about famous childrens fairytales - NOT religion.
I would have posted it in the Religious section if it were.
Yawn!

Mornin' Blue...yes ma'am...I surely do believe in Santa. When my kids would ask me the question...I always answered them by asking, if it was more fun to believe in Santa or not to? And, they agreed with me...that Christmas is way more fun if you believe in Santa Claus... No, I'm not kidding...

Re: Should we ban Fairy Tales

A lot of the old fairy tales were altered from the originals because they were too gruesome, especially Grimm's and Hans Anderson's.
I had a book of Grimm's tales when I was a kid, they were quite scary.
"The Water Babies" by Charles Kingsley was disturbing too!
