Poll: did you ever believe in Santa?

[Jedamethis]

What?! What do you mean he- he isn't?! *cries*

Naw, I don't know when, but I was quite young when I had known for ages that we'd be getting presents from 'Father Christmas' who definitely wasn't my parents at all. Nope. Not at all. *wink wink*

 

[Guffe]

Of course I believe in him!!
How can you not believe in Santa! He is what goodness is in this world!!

 

[lacktheknack]

Nope. Didn't hear about the guy until I was five or six, then when I asked Mom how sleighs can fly, she said they couldn't.

Easy.

 

[RedDeadFred]

Stopped believing in Santa when I was 10. I'm pretty sure that was when I stopped believing in god too.

 

[dragonburner]

I remember when my sister told me he wasn't real. SOOOOO PISSED!

 

[Drakmeire]

I did for a little bit, I stopped around 7-8 when I realized that he wasn't in the bible and I believed that God delivered the gifts then I found out it was may parents when I was about 9. I'm no where near as religious as I was when I was a kid though.

 

[FaceFaceFace]

I figured out the tooth fairy wasn't real when I saw my mom taking my tooth. I then reasoned that the Easter Bunny was not real, and Santa Claus was not real, and finally that God was not real.

 

[DirgeNovak]

Yes, until I was 6. I overheard my mom talking with her mom on the phone about what she had bought me and my brother for Christmas. Oh, the betrayal!

 

[Fall from Honor]

nope, my mom never taught me about any imaginary beings and a fat guy who could fit through a chimney sounded kind of ridiculous to me so nope never believed in any imaginary creatures that are associated with holidays

 

[ultimateownage]

Not that I can recall, no. Why would some fat bastard sneak into my house and give me everything I said I wanted to my parents?

 

[Eumersian]

I would be willing to bet that I did. If I had a time machine, I would make that bet with somebody, and go back with them and ask my past self what I thought of Santa. I'm sure past self me would say something implying that I did believe. Then I would go back to the future where I would be maybe $100 richer.

 

[Legion]

Yes, but I stopped believing pretty quick. Hell, I was an Atheist at the age of 11 so that probably says something about my cynicism.

 

[Queen Michael]

I did, but when I found out he wasn't real I just thought "So it isn't some fat stranger breaking into my house and delivering things his slaves produced after spying on me like Big Brother, but rather my parents who went and bought things they wanted to give to me because they love me? Sounds pretty fine to me!"

 

[Shirokurou]

Yeah...
My dad actually went out of his way and kept it going for a long time, by being the stealth master and sneaking presents under the tree, while in the same room, talking to me.

Though when i got older, mom told me.

 

[Harlemura]

I did for ages, probably the last out of a lot of people I know to stop believing.
Yet there's still a part of me that wants to believe there's a fat bloke sitting in the North Pole doing something to get Christmas going.

 

[Captain Pancake]

it was at the back of my mind when I was young but I went along with it because, hell, it was Christmas!

 

[BlumiereBleck]

Yes. That miracle of goodness made me believe

 

[DesiPrinceX09]

Nope; My mom was once Catholic so she used to celebrate Christmas and when she first told me about Santa when I was 3 or 4 years old she told me that I said this: "Who on Earth would be stupid enough to believe that some fat white guy in a red suit delivers presents to every kid in the world in one night?"

And then I came to America and found 10 and 11 year old who believed...lol

 

[Nouw]

I haven't believed in him since I was I don't know... 9-10?
