You'd have to be quite the cynic to think that, in my opinion.

Remember, God looks on the heart. What do people in the Bible use witchcraft for? Selfish scheming, treachery, circumventing God.

Santa Claus represents selfless giving. If there is one central characteristic of God, it's that. "For God so loved he gave..."

Fantastic powers don't constitute "witchcraft." Otherwise you have to indict Superman, Captain Marvel, Paul Bunyan and Tinkerbell. Every fictional superhuman hero ever becomes a "witch" under that view. Do you really want to go there?

Don't we have better things to do?
