Entry: The Real St. Nicholas Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_real_st_nicholas#10591 Post contents: <I>I’d like to know what some other dad’s positions on the Santa Claus issue are.</I> I ignored the issue and played along and my kids figured it out by themselves because in our house we focused on Jesus and the Incarnation. And speaking of the Incarnation, this is a good time (with Advent nigh) to post one of my favorite passages from Holy Writ... Wisdom: 18:14. For while all things were in quiet silence, and the night was in the midst of her course, <I>Cum enim quietum silentium contineret omnia et nox in suo cursu medium iter haberet</I> 18:15. Thy Almighty word leaped down from heaven from thy royal throne, as a fierce conqueror into the midst of the land of destruction, <I>Omnipotens sermo tuus de caelo a regalibus sedibus durus debellator in mediam exterminii terram prosilivit</I> Sent at: 2008 10 07
