Conspiracy Theorists claim that Santa does not exist and that it is an "inside job" but parents.
This is can be shown to be unsound, using the same logic and principles that "9/11 Debunkers" use.
Consider...
A THOSE INVOLVED IN THE COVER-UP
- Is it really likely that an entire half of the population of the world would go to such trouble to convince the other half that a big fat man was
going to slide down the chimney?
- What would parents hope to gain by this?
- Why hasn't anyone broken ranks and come forward to expose everyone in the newspapers?
- Is it really likely that Department stores, concerned about legal action would all claim to have a visit by celebrity without any of them checking
his ID?
B. THE OFFICIAL REPORTS
- The Post Office in Finland accepts millions of mail each year on his behalf - are they really all deceiving us?
- NORAD issues an annual report giving details of radar tracking him each year - how can a report from such a respected source be ignored?
- Reports from NIST clearly show that the average roof would be able to support the weight of a sledge and a team of flying reindeer if evenly
distributed.
C. TRADE BALANCE
- Add up all the imports and exports for every country in the world and the world is a net exporter. As this should be zero, this balance must go
somewhere. As it cannot leave the planet, this balance must represent material imported by the Pixie factories at the North Pole where the toys are
made and indeed, that balance roughly compares with estimates for that received by kids in their stockings.
D. PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE
- There is a mountain of photographic evidence and video tape clearly showing Santa - how can conspiracy theorists not accept such clear evidence.
E. MEANS
- Conspiracy theorists point to the fact that no-one has ever seen Santa filling their stockings. Well, this is clearly unsound for the following
reason: if Santa only filled the stocking of kids in Western Europe, he would spend less that 100,00th of a second for each house as he has to do it
in just one night...so, no wonder no-one sees him.
F. OFFICIAL CONCLUSION
- Since Conspiracy theorists have been unable to come up with any concrete ideas about Santa, clearly we should accept the official version... that a
fat, 1500 year old man delivers these toys to kids every year until they can come up with something that they can prove.
