Yup, there was a guy named Saint Nicholas. Look that up and you'll see what I mean.

Well, Santa Claus is based off St. Nicholas, known as a patron saint of everything from children to sailors and pawnbrokers. A man matching his description lived in the 300's AD and was apparently a very generous man who became bishop, but as far as him being a saint...the church checked its records in the 1960's and discovered no proof of such a man ever being canonized as a saint. Regardless, his image has evolved in time to be the jolly fat man in red, partly due to Haddon Sundblom creating the famous images for Coka-Cola advertising in 1931.

this is gonna sound funny but I believe in Santa not as a being but in everyone what I mean is as a single mother when I was younger I had a very hard time paying for everything bills, child care, rent , food etc but somehow around Christmas I always managed to get my daughter everything she always has had a good christmas So I just figured it was the Santa Claus in me.

Santa is all in heart. If you believe then you believe. If you dont then you dont. If you have kids tell them that he is real. When they ask if he is tell them its all in your heart . Now if there young tell them he is real.
