				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://fatlip.leoweekly.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/santa.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10136" title="The more you fear him, the stronger he gets..." src="http://fatlip.leoweekly.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/santa.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="285" /></a>The editors of failing paper-of-record <em>The New York Times</em> have published their <a href="http://roomfordebate.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/12/22/the-truth-about-santa/?partner=rss&amp;emc=rss" target="_blank">most important editorial feature</a> of the year. In it, psychologists and other assorted eggheads offer advice on how best to build up a child&#8217;s belief in the present-demon known as &#8220;Santa Claus&#8221; and then pull the rug from underneath them while inflicting only a minimum of psychic trauma.<span id="more-10135"></span></p>
<p>The most egregious offense comes from Gregory Mone, whom has the audacity to meld pagan apologetics with quantum mechanics:</p>
<blockquote><p>If they ask how he visits all those homes in a single night, for example, I’ll propose that he might time travel, using astrophysical oddities called wormholes. How does he read all those Christmas lists? He might have an automated mail-sorter that opens the envelopes, scans the notes, then uses a machine reading-program to decipher the handwriting. This way, Santa wouldn’t have to scour the lists himself. His computers would do it for him.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;His computers would do it for him&#8221;&#8230;? What about long ago, before Intel and Turing machines and vacuum-based computer processing? How did Santa do it <em>then</em>, smart guy? Huh? (The answer here, of course, is Santa = Jesus)</p>
