(Christen) Manny enjoys reading the Bible to us. Not that he can actually read, but he will open his picture bible and recite all that he remembers. As he was doing this today he informed us of the Biblical character Santa. That’s right Santa.
Manny: “God made everything.”

“God tell Adam and Eve not to eat the flute (fruit)…and they eat it.”
Turn page
“Santa is on fire”
Christen: “I don’t think that is Santa”
Manny: “Yes it is. Santa is bad. He lives in fire. The ground swallowed him.”
Brady: “Hmmmm, are you sure you don’t mean ‘Satan’?”
Manny: “Huh? Yes. Bad Santa.”
I’m sure God wouldn’t mind this terminology seeing as the big guy steals a lot of his thunder on a regular basis! You heard it here; In Ghana, Santa is not our jolly present bearing fictional friend…he is a bad man living in the ground.
