Yes I believe in Santa Claus. There was a fellow who went around doing good deeds for people named Saint Nicholas. He was became a Saint in one of the branch of the Christian Religions. He lived in Turkey during the 4th Century and he was best known for his good deed to a poor man who had three daughters all of them wanted to get married but the father had no money for a dowery for each of his daughters. So that none of them would become prostitutes, Nicholas as he was called at that time went to the man's house and through an open window placed money in each of the daughter's stockings. Hence the idea of putting gifts in one stockings. There is a shrine to him in Bari Italy. Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of archers,children,prostitutes, lawyers and pharamacist plus a few other people in different trades. So yes there really is a Santa Clause and he wasn't made up by coke-a-cola.

I definitely believe in Santa Claus. However, not the red suit & reindeer guy. To me, Santa Claus is any group or individual that works to make Christmas brighter for those less fortunate.

Yes I do believe in santa claus, maybe not in the form that children do but each person has their own santa that they don't know, and this santa can be a stranger in a store who gives you the money to buy your child a box of pop tarts that u can't afford

Depends on your parents. I doubt that Santa Claus is real, because remember that Coca-Cola created today's modern image of Santa Claus. Either it's because he doesn't exist OR I've just never been good.

Yes yes, of course. We all do.
You have brought and distributed presents to everyone (except for the naughty ones, LOL) year after year. You also have the time to enter everyone's chimney, even though some of us do not, and give us presents in one night only. You tha man.
I will not be putting milk and cookies this year on the table. Say, do you want instead beer and nachos this year, Santa?
Well, thank you for your time and generosity.
See you soon, Chubby Santa.

I believe there is a guy in Pennysylvania who legally changed his name to Santa Claus. I heard it on the news a long while ago.

I believe in Santa Claus, oh yes I do. His spirit lives in every gift given with love, in every act of charity.
