lirik lagu akira the don - obviously santa claus exists
one of the arguments we hear
coming from the new type of atheist
“when i was a child, i believed in santa claus
when i was a child, i believed in the tooth fairy
but then, one day, i grew up
and i realized that santa claus doesn’t exist
i realized that the tooth fairy doesn’t exist
and in the same manner, one day, i grew up
and i realized that god doesn’t exist”
(god doesn’t exist)
i’ve always found that line of argumentation rather funny
because, to me, it seems
completely absurd
to say, santa claus doesn’t exist
because, obviously, santa claus exists
there are santa clauses everywhere at christmas
there are guys who dress up as santa claus
there are santa claus decoration, ornaments
we have stories, we have song we have of all these things
which celebrate santa claus
it is patently absurd to say that santa claus does not exist
obviously, santa claus exists
obviously, santa claus exists
obviously, santa claus exists
obviously, santa claus exists
there are certain things that don’t exist
for example, a square circle or dry water
now, those things are impossible
they do not exist
but santa claus, definitely exists
the question we need to ask is
in what manner does santa claus exist
and i think that asking oneself that question of
how it is that santa claus exists
can maybe help certain people
understand the manner in which we say
that god exists
there are things that exist that are not
at the level of my coffee cup
there are things which exist
at different levels of being
obviously, santa claus exists
and you can say that about concept
love exists, but you can’t
obviously, santa claus exists
you can’t put it in a bottle
you can’t put it in a box
but it still exists
obviously, santa claus exists
in a much more immediate manner
then something like love
obviously, santa claus exists
we know what santa claus looks like
what his purpose is
now, the thing is that what people
uh, tend to, to struggle with
is to understand that
beings are not
obvious
it’s not that obvious
how to contain a being
so, you, for example
you have parts
you have hands and fingers, eyes
you have hair
you have all these different part
and there is something, your being, your personhood
which holds all those things together
and now, santa claus is the same thing
but his body is just not as contained as your body
it is actually a lot bigger than your body
parts of santa claus are the images of santa claus
that we see in movies
that we see in stories
just like your picture which appears online
obviously, santa claus exists
your picture that’s in your telephone
or in some family album
obviously, santa claus exists
is an extension of you
obviously, santa claus exists
when people see the picture, they recognize you
and they come into contact with you
obviously, santa claus exists
so too, santa claus has parts
when a guy dresses up as santa claus in your mall
he is manifesting, santa claus
he is a part of santa claus to the extent that he’s partic~p~ting
in the being of santa claus
at that moment
if a child goes to the mall
they sit on santa claus’s lap
and then, they speak to santa claus
“what would you like for christmas?”
the child will answer what they want for christmas
since santa claus will find some story about how, you know
he’s gonna try to get that child his gift for christmas
so, the child is speaking to santa claus
and that’s really important to understand
the child is not speaking to joe under the costume
who’s put on the fake beard
she, she isn’t speaking to him
obviously, santa claus exists
she’s speaking to santa claus
obviously, santa claus exists
and it also isn’t joe that is answering
obviously, santa claus exists
it’s santa claus that is answering
obviously, santa claus exists
it’s obvious that santa claus exists
if joe starts to tell the child something else
the child will no longer recognize santa claus
joe will cease to be a body part of santa claus
now, you can write a letter to santa claus
put it in the mail, send it to santa claus
and you know what santa claus is going to answer
and it isn’t martha sitting in the post office
you know, typing out the letter
she’s not the one who’s actually answering
she is manifesting santa claus
the same thing you’re doing to santa claus
i can do to you
when you answer my question, i can say
“well, it’s not you that is answering my question, right
it’s your mouth that’s answering my question”
but is that true?
is it your mouth that’s answering the question
no, your mouth is the tool by which
you are answering the question
obviously, santa claus exists
the disguised santa clauses are the tool by which
obviously, santa claus exists
santa claus manifest himself in the world
obviously, santa claus exists
santa claus is a being that’s pretty coherent
obviously, santa clause
he has a personality
he has a way of speaking
you can engage with santa claus
and santa claus will answer
this is not just imaginary because
you are not that contained, as you think
[laughs], you as a person
you can be possessed by all these different ideas
you can be influenced by all these external influences
and even in your mind
you are not as centered as you think
you have all these different kinda crazy personalities
that can pull you in different direction
so why do you think that you, as a person, exist
right, there is something
there is a total way in which those elements are pulled together
into a consistent being
if it wasn’t so we’d say you’re schizophrenic
or we’d say you’re crazy
if you’re not crazy
there’s something pulling those elements together
so that when i ask you something
you answer me i recognize you in that answer
obviously, santa claus exists
obviously, santa claus exists
obviously, santa claus exists
