Doesn't give to the bad??? Jesus helped outcasts like people with leprosy, a "lady of the evening" (such a person could be stoned to death by the laws at that time), forgave a thief that was crucified at the same time as Jesus was and told the thief that he would go to Heaven. These are just a few examples. Jesus is real--Santa isn't.

Santa, because the last statement is untrue about Jesus.
"No one alive has seen him."
LOTS of people saw Jesus, and I see Him every day.
If I had to pick between the two based on personal preference, i'd say Jesus.

Santa! Jesus is celebrated all year long, brought more than a physical gift, shows no favoritism so He gives to both good and bad, loves more than just children, and millions of people worship Him today in the US alone because He is real.
Merry Christmas to you!

it could be either. Santa is based on St. Nicholas, who was an actual person. Obviously people have seen him. BUT Jesus should be celebrated all the time, not just Christmas. And Jesus gives to bad people too. He died for their sins just like he died for the good people.

It's got to be Jesus! We are celebrating the remembrance of Jesus' birth and the gift that God gave. The Santa part is fun too. But Jesus truly is the reason for the season. God Bless and Merry CHRISTmas!

Jesus because Santa is based on a lie. I think that Santa is the worst thing that is used on children because when they figure out that Santa is not real, then they would think that it is OK to lie, which is not OK to lie at all.
Santa is a lie. He was real, but not the version of him with the red suit and the white figure hair with flying reindeer.
Jesus is not a lie.
I will bet you that all the Atheist will give me a thumbs down because they don't believe in Santa and Jesus, and the rest of the people will give me a thumbs down because they are either parents, kids, or just people that loves the holiday that they really don't know of.
