Abstract in different language: Justin L. Barrett in his 2008 article “Why Santa Claus is not a god” argued that a collection of a few basic representational content features can ex- plain why a god concept can become the centre of widespread religious beliefs and practices. In this ar- ticle, I demonstrate the ways in which Barrett’s repre- sentational model fails in defence of his main hypoth- esis, and I use his model as an example to show the limits of similar approaches in the cognitive science of religion.
