[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Santa Claus was created by political cartoonist Thomas Nast either in the late 1800's or early 1900's if I recall correctly. Although Nast was primarily remembered as being a political cartoonist, and that's where they adjective "nasty" comes from, I believe he also did illustrations for advertisements, and Santa Claus was originally created for a department store advertisement or Sears catalog or something like that. So, Santa Claus isn't even a "pagan legend." It's a freaking drawing.[/quote] Not exactly. There was St Nicholas, Kris Kringle, and Father Christmas. http://www.whychristmas.com/customs/fatherchristmas.shtml#santa[/quote]
