After POV mentioned Father Christmas in one of his posts, I guess it made a subconscious impression on me.  The reason I say this is that I am alone in my home after a very strenuous week both physically and emotionally, and my choice of music was The Mormon Tabernacle Choir doing Christmas.  My home is full of a feeling that usually is reserved for one short period of time a year, and here it is in October and I am so politically incorrect....I mean after all, everyone else has pumpkins and ghosts and all that webby stuff they put on the rose bushes.  But that is the thing of the thing...what Christmas signifies is not just another a seasonal thing...and then I said to myself, what has this great and good and holy feeling that I feel right now, the gratitude for the lesson and the living street theatre example of unconditional love got to do with all the crap that has been brought to light about the person we bought into because of his youth and persuasiveness? 

Absolutely Nothing.

Why would the Creator send such a person to deliver His Most Precious Gift to Humanity?  To  see if we can see through the disguise and see God in even Prem Rawat or to see if we can be deceived?

So in the meantime, Merry Christmas here and now to everyone, even POV!
