I still believe in santa. I am thirty seven. No i am not weird. Christmas and santa are about the spirit of giving. That is what santa is the spirit of giving to one another. So in a sense we never outgrow santa. Thats my thoughts.

I believe in Santa Claus. Anybody that gives to another person is a Santa Claus in spirit.
Santa Claus = all the giving people in the world whether known or anonymous!

Santa Claus:
Where Did That Guy in the Red Suit Come From?
The origin of Santa Claus depends on which country's story you choose to adopt. Santa Claus comes from the Dutch words "Sinter Klaas", which is what they call their favorite saint, St. Nicholas. He is said to have died on December 6, A.D. 342. December 6th is celebrated as his feast day, and in many countries this is the day he arrives with his presents and punishments.
Nicholas lived in what is now called Turkey. He was born about A.D. 280 in the town of Patras. His parents were wealthy and he was well educated. Nicholas seems to have had a remarkable childhood. While still a young boy he was made Bishop of Myra, and because of this he has been known ever since as the Boy Bishop. He was renowned for his extreme kindness and generosity – often going out at night and taking presents to the needy.
(so u see santa was real!!!!!!!!!and i believe there is a santa inside all of those who give!)

Yes! I believe that Santa Claus is a wonderful part of growing up. It gives kids something positive to obsess about in this negative world we live in. We should do all we can to keep the little ones believing as long as we can. Santa is real!

I stopped believing in the physical Santa when I was 8. I was devestated. Now I don't so much believe in the actually man but the spirit of Santa is 100% real.

I believe Santa was a real person who lived a long time ago and gave presents out of the kindness of his heart. The tradition has been maintained to continue the generosity and kindness of gift-giving. Either that or there just aren't any good boys or girls anymore so Santa has decided to stay in the North pole. (j/k)

I'm 32 going on 2 I suppose cause I still believe in Santa. He doesn't come thru fireplaces or key holes or anything like that. He's alive in our hearts, a reminder to us all, if you will, that there is still a lot of good and love in this world. He helps us adults at least once a year return to our childhood and relive the wonder and charm that is Christmas time. He helps those of us who are still children to realize that their is an amazing world around us that is unseen but still there none-the-less.

I did when I was younger. Of course everyone believes in Santa Claus at some younger point in their lives, that's part of life.

I am 45 and I still believe in the "magic" of Santa. It is not believing in Santa but believing in the spirit of Christmas giving , and the good feeling it gives me.
