Well....I didn't want to go down this track again, but the what the hey!
Once again, somebody is trying to prove the existence of God by asking us to prove other unprovable things. This is obviously a desperate attempt for credibility.
As I have mentioned previously, Love is an emotion, not an actual being or object of any sort. You cannot prove that you love, just as you cannot prove that you are happy or sad. It's not even in the same ballpark as proving that there is a God. God is an actual being (apparently) who created and now holds sway over this Earth. I think proof is not only necessary, but would definitely be available if this were the case.
Second of all, using Santa Claus seems very funny to me. Santa Claus, like God IMHO, is a mademade being to suit a particular person. The difference is, Santa was made with the intention of making kids happy, and has become a way for people to make ridiculous amounts of money. God was made to fill the gap of understanding, that many people feel they have to fill, whereas others are more willing to face up to the more reasonable and rational logic, and funnily enough, has also become a way for people to make ridiculous amounts of money.
Finally, who cares whether Santa Claus exists or not. You can use all the examples that you want of unprovable things. My point is that it really doesn't matter whether we can prove them or not. I think God needs to be proved. If I found out that Santa actually existed, I don't think my life would change very much. God is a different story.
Please don't take this as abuse, it is just my opinion.
Avi.
