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 Clause, well known also as St. Nicholas, lived over 500 years ago. He grew up in a very poor town and he saw all the little chlidren so sad because of what their government was doing to them. So, one day he decided he needed to cheer these children up. He went around his town, tossing coins into the children's stockings while they were hanging to dry, and while the kids were asleep. He also went through the windows and put small toys near their fireplaces. The gorvenment found out about this and were not pleased. They had all the citizens lock all their windows and doors. But St. Nick did not give up. He tried the chimenys, which worked quite well. He contienued doing this for quite a while, and his whole town remembered him when he died of an old age.
You see, the character of Santa Clause isn't entirely fake. He lived many years ago and his spirit is the thing that gives you that fuzzy feeling when you wake up on Christmas Day. Although there is not a man wearing a red suit with a sleigh and a huge bag of presents, plus eight (or nine) reindeer guiding his sleigh, he lives on through your heart, and he gives your parents the privilege of putting presents under your Christmas Tree. And lets not forget the 2 true meanings of Christmas: One, Christ was born that day, and two, you get to spend more time with your family and friends. So focus on having a very Merry Christmas with everyone you love, and just know that even though Santa isn't copporeal, that doesn't mean he isn't real.
Merry Christmas!

Santa Claus is alive and well in the hearts of children throughout the world. Santa Claus is known by many names, but his first recorded name was Saint Nicholas. Historians claim that the history of Santa starts with the tradition of Saint Nicholas, a 4th Century Christian priest who lived in the Middle East in an area of present day Turkey.
Saint Nicholas became famous throughout the world for his kindness in giving gifts to others who were less fortunate. Typically, he placed gifts of gold down people's chimneys - sometimes into stockings. It may be that the Santa we know and love emerged from the legacy of Saint Nicholas. Clearly, Santa's basic approach to gift giving is strikingly similar to that of Saint Nicholas. What we know from history is that the tradition of Santa Claus and Saint Nicholas merged.
