The good folks out at Repent Amarillo (self-described “outside the box in terms of traditional American Christian practices”) have opened up a new front in the War on Christmas, this time executing Santa Claus with a firing squad. Among St. Nic’s alleged “heinous” transgressions:

“You have sought to substitute yourself for the place for the only begotten son of God, Jesus Christ, during the Christmas season. You are thus guilty of being a symbol of idolatry.”

“You have sought to become a stumbling block for parents who lie to their children that you exist to bring them gifts. You are thus guilty of being a stumbling block.”


“You have sought to remove benevolence from Christmas and turn it into a festival of gluttony and greed with rampant commercialism. You are thus guilty of inciting covetousness.”

Before the deed is done, the executioner kindly offers to plead for Santa’s soul, but then notes, “but you have no soul as you exist only as a lie, and nothing more.”
