One is married to Mrs. Clause. And the other isn't. One has a reputation for delivering presents to kids of good will, and the other delivers evil. One knows if you've been good or bad, and reprimands you to be good for goodness' sake. The other wants you to be bad. One believes in the conduct of children who do well to obey their parents, and the other one wants you to be rebellious towards all that is good. One has a white beard, and the other one does have a beard because it was burned off in the hell fire. One rests in the north pole, and the other one is nowhere around there. Santa Clause is a good fun way to teach a child how to be imaginative and genuine in growth and developmental thinking towards being the best he/she can be. Satan, on the other hand, is the enemy of God and all that is good.

Well it is kinda weird, when you think about. I knew this kid that wasn't allowd to say Santa Claus because it was against his religion.

Only if you ignore the fact that 'santa' and 'satan' , 'claus' and 'claws' are from different languages.

I think that if you try hard enough, you can draw a comparison btw just about anything.
