This is hilarious. Lydia McGrew urges Christian parents not to tell their kids that Santa Claus exists because when kids realize there is no Santa Claus they might also start wondering about God. Note that McGrew gives no principled reason for believing in the existence of one but not the other; no explanation of why the arguments that apply to one would not also apply to the other--nothing but a bare assertion that God is "different. He's real." No, her point is simply that it's best not to go down that road, lest your child start...you know...thinking and all that. What a sad form of naive confession.
