In Reply to: You don't believe in Santa? - Jesus is the Reason for the Season, but see inside

their children Santa is an actual entity, not the spirit of Christmas. My mom told me there was a St. Nicholas who gave to others and that "Santa" was just a way to replicate the wonderful intention of St. Nicholas. Most people, including myself, lead their children to believe he is a real being, and it can be very disheartening when they find out it is not true. Any thoughts on that specifically ... anyone?
