If you believe in God, then you have a deformed brain probably, then believing in things like Santa, Easter Bunny, Jesus, Satan, etc...

Don't be short-sighted and lump God in with the other two.
But for sake of argument, believing or not doesn't alter their existence. Each has their definition and all of them exist because they exist in your psyche; you know what they are.
It is funny how time and our imaginations have created such creatures as Santa and the Easter bunny, but their archetypes are rooted in Christian beliefs: birth and resurrection of Christ.
I enjoyed Christmas and Easter as a child and will practice the tradition with my child. I have explained what each tradition is and she has the faith to fill in the blanks. To believe in something good and wonderful only to later be wrong is better than believing in nothing and being right.

Let's break this down in simple terms: Santa Claus is a rip-off of J.C. The Easter Bunny is a rip-off of the Resurrection of J.C. So, hmmmmmmmm.

Nope. I do believe in God, however.
