I postulated that eventually Santa Claus will no longer be able to deliver presents to all the people in the world.
Here's why....Consider the exponential growth of the global population. There will be a point in the near future when Santa Claus must travel beyond the speed of light to deliver presents to ALL the boys and girls across the world. Based on Einstein's (Special Theory of Relativity) no material object can travel faster than the speed of light. Therefore Santa's reindeer and sled cannot deliver the presents before Christmas Day.

Yes, but not everyone celebrates Christmas.
And not all children are good.
That cuts down on the workload.
As for only having 34 microseconds to make each stop, we all know that Santa eats a tremendous amount of sugar (candy canes, hot chocolate, cookies, etc). This provides his muscles with enough energy for him to move at near sub-light speeds.

Santa Clause is magic. The theory of relativity does not apply.
