Wait.. god exist?
He exists in our minds only, topic solved.
You just painted one hell of a target on your head, Marx.
We have Sinterklaas and he is/based on Wodan/Odin.
Little information:
Feast of Saint Nicholas. The feast celebrates the name day of Saint Nicholas, patron saint of, among other things, children, who are the principal focus of the feast. They receive presents, candy and poems. The origins of Saint Nicholas appear to be Christian, but in fact originate from ancient Germanic mythology, with Dutch figure of Sinterklaas representing the god Wodan. Both have a beard, hat and spear (nowadays a staff) and the cloth bag held by the servants to capture naughty children. Both Saint Nicolas and Odin ride white horses that can fly through the air. The letters made of chocolate given by the Zwarte Pieten to the children evokes the fact that Odin ‘invented’ the rune letters. The poems made during the celebration and the songs the children sing relate to Odin as the god of the arts of poetry. It's celebrated on December 5 or 6.
Don't know much about santa but he could be based on something.

As Kentaro says. its true.. he exist in our mind.. nice one Kentaro.. thats one of the beliefs in Hinduism..
Dont want to be rude guys, it really doesnt matter if God does exist or what! the possible problem why he had created this world, us.. and by means of a reason.. yeah we have a reason why we are living in this manly earth.. thats why we were or we are conscious of your existence and another possible problem where does this kind of Knowledge came from or what is. Sorry i just wanted to share this out.. thanks for participating..

If you're asking if Saint Nicholas actually existed then just google it. Google is your friend.
Also this is to those trying to ask questions like why "this" and why "that".
Why does everything have to have some grand purpose?
Sometimes people over complicate things when there is a simple explanation.
Of course, there's also the Krampus who supposedly comes for bad children :]
Christmas is coming,
children are running.
The ones who are good,
are gonna have fun.
The ones who are bad,
are gonna be sad,
cause disappointing Santa
makes Krampus mad.
It's nice to be nice,
and it's good to be good.
If you are not,
let it be understood,
that Santa's got a list
and a sleigh full of toys,
but he only deals with
the good girls and boys.
Snow is falling everywhere,
everyone is full of cheer.
If you've been good all year,
you ain't got nothing to fear.
Although, you think that you know,
half of the story
you've never been told.
So I'm telling you now,
you better not lie.
Because if you do,
then he's coming for you
and there's nowhere to hide.
This time there's no visit from Santa.
This year it's christmas with Krampus.
Sleigh bells ringing,
children are singing,
praises of Santa and gifts
he'll be bringing.
Never forget old Saint Nick's clause,
no gifts for the wicked is Santa's law.
[Chorus]
So my friend
we come to the end
of this Christmas song
with a message to send.
Always be kind
and do what is right,
or it might be Krampus
down your chimney tonight.
Reputation: 372Santa is real. I mean, look at all the stories there are about him from long ago. So obviously he must be real.
Also, I have felt it, and talked to him spiritually through prayer, so I know he is real.
And that something is created is proof that there must be a creatOR, so since there is christmas and presents, there must be a santa claus.

lol, there is no proof that the Universe must have been created, people. We don't know what happened before the Big Bang, after all. I for one believe that the Universe has always existed.

Reputation: 55But you see, even if your parents aren't lieing to you they can be just as wrong as anyone else. Your mom isn't all-knowing.
I couldn't be happier that I had parents who let me choose my life and my beliefs. I wouldn't want to live if I got brought up by some crazy shit christian nut job family and had no mind of my own. I'm not saying that about you though I'm just veering off topic.
