IT DEPENDS ONE ONE'S BELIEF OR NON-BELIEF ABOUT SANTA CLAUS. PLEASE CHOOSE THE AS YOU LIKE -
* Santa Claus is as real as one wishes him to be.
* No, sorry. He is just a character made up by adults to make their children more imaginative.
* Yes, Santa Claus is real because he was already declared a saint. Therefore, if he is a saint, he can perform miracles such as giving gifts to a mass number of good children.
* I really think that Santa Claus is totally real. But I am only 6 years old so you might not believe me. By the way my mom is typing this because I can't read and I am just saying this to mom and she is typing.
* Totally not, it is just a silly rumor to get children to do what they are told.
* Yes, he is real! Can anyone else give presents to good little girls and boys and make it home in time for dinner?
* He is not real parents are the ones who put presents in the stockings.
* Is Santa Claus real? Yes! Santa Claus is real! And I'm going to find him. I'm part of a growing team of "Santa Seekers" who intend to prove to the world that Santa Claus is real. We'll use science and faith respectively. And you can join us! Is Santa Real? Maybe you should join our "Search for Santa!" Or watch me in the new film.
* Santa Claus is totally totally real. There are about two billion children in the world (people under the age of 18). But Santa doesn't appear to handle Muslim, Hindu, Jewish, and Buddhist children. That reduces the workload on Santa to about 15%, now with a total of 378 million children is easier. He has 31 hours of Christmas time to do so. That is 91.8 million homes. He goes East to West because of time diffrences. So therefore he is real.
* If you are more religious than most then you would think yes, because he was actually declared as a Saint (Saint Nick) because of the miracle of delivering presents to good little boys and girls throughout the world that believe in him. But if you're a skeptic then most likely no, because as you grow older you come to realize that it is none other than your parents placing those presents under the tree (it was my mothers handwriting that did it in for me) but deep down it is a sense that it was like a childhood memory that even adults still cherish and present to their childrens minds and hearts to help build their imagination and let them believe in something because as they grow older they tend to lose their sense of child like innocence and it's a way of holding on that and make it to where they behave for at least a month. But yes as someone else said it, "Santa Claus is as real as one wishes him to be".
* Yes, Santa WAS a real man. He lived in Turkey.
* The existance of Santa Claus is only as subjective as anybody else's. -

Santa Claus, also known as Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, or simply "Santa" is a mythological, legendary, and historical character associated with bringing gifts on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
Saint Nicholas of Myra is the primary inspiration for the Christian figure of Santa Claus. He was a 4th century Christian bishop of Myra in Lycia, a province of the Byzantine Anatolia, now in Turkey. Nicholas was famous for his generous gifts to the poor, in particular presenting the three impoverished daughters of a pious Christian with dowries so that they would not have to become prostitutes. He was very religious from an early age and devoted his life entirely to Christianity. So in this sense, yes he was real.

Santa Claus is as real as you believe he is. Saint Nicholas was the 'real' person who Santa Claus is based upon.

Saint Nicholas is the common name for Nicholas of Myra, a saint and Bishop of Myra in Lycia of Anatolia (modern-day Antalya province, Turkey, though then it was a Greek-speaking Roman Province). He was born during the third century in the village of Patara. He had a reputation for secret gift-giving, but is now commonly identified with Santa Claus.

Santa is real only if you believe. When you stop believing, he stops coming. That is one way he can get around the world so fast, he doesn't have to stop at houses where children don't believe.
