<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="DE">Leuk filmpje. Ik vraag me trouwens af of Sinterklaas niet
de gedroomde figuur is om tegenstellingen tussen katholieken en protestanten
wat te overstijgen. Zelfs protestanten lijken er geen graten in te zien dat de
man zich soms in Spanje terug trekt *s*. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="DE"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="DE">Nee serieus, ik dacht echt dat bij protestanten het
feestvieren wat minder goed in de markt zou liggen als bij katholieken. Daarom
doet het mij plezier dat ook in Amerika de goedheilig man blijkbaar op wat
bijval kan rekenen...al roept er iemand op de achtergrond "they sing
Christmas songs" *s*...maar goed, je kan niet onmiddellijk verwachten dat
elke Amerikaan perfect op de hoogte is van elk feest van elke inwoner I
guess. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Maybe they

Santaclós *s*.</span></p>
