I don't beleieve in santa clause anymore but Saint Nick was a real person i think, who started the whole Santa Clause idea by using his whole inheritance to give to the poor, sick and needy.

Santa Claus, Saint Nicholas, Saint Nick, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Santy, or simply Santa is a gift-giving figure in various cultures who distributes presents to children, traditionally on Christmas Eve. The popular American form Santa Claus originated as a mispronounciation of Dutch Sinterklaas, which is a contracted form of Sint Nicolaas (Saint Nicholas).

I'm not really sure how old you are........but I guess ur parents haven't told u yet. There is no such thing as Santa or Saint Nick. Ur parents wait till ur asleep, then put all the presents (that are hidden) under the Christmas Tree. If u don't believe me, stay up on Christmas, and ull see.

Oooh me, me! I am a 39 year old adult woman and I do still believe in Santa Claus.
Some people are just not able to believe in something unless they can actually see it. But those of us who are more open to the magical, wonderful things in life still believe.

it relatively is "Santa Claus". A "clause" is a grammatical shape. St. Nicholas might have certainly been a real individual, yet a guy residing with elves and reindeer on the North Pole is a myth.

I did for a long time ... until I found out that he was my Dad.
My Santa passed away 5 years back and I miss him terribly.

I don't believe in a person calling himself Santa, but there is definately something called "Christmas Spirit" which spreads like a cancer; causing many people to be nicer than they normally would.
