Who Is Santa Klaus? Just as the Christmas tree was brought over to this country by early German immigrants so Saint Nicholas, or Santa Klaus, came here in the train of the Dutch settlers of New York. He established himself first in the little island of Manhattan and then gradually spread all over the country. His Dutch origin is shown by the very name Santa Klaus, which is common alike to Holland and America, though it is elsewhere unknown. At first he was honored on his own day with the same observances that marked the festival in the Fatherland. Before the beginning of the nineteenth century St. Nicholas's day had been all but forgotten in New Amsterdam, and New Year's Eve was the occasion when he made his rounds as a gift bearer to the children. Later he transferred his activities to Christmas. To go further back, we know that even in the eighteenth century, when New York was still to a great extent Dutch in blood and in feeling, the little children of the Knickerbockers would gather expectant around the great hearth in the parlor on the eve of New Year and not on the eve of Saint Nicholas's feast. It was to Saint Nicholas they addressed the childish hymns and songs their forefathers had brought from Holland. It was about the middle of the nineteenth century that the funny men of America took the Saint under their special patronage. In Holland he had been austere and dignified, as became a bishop and a saint. In America he developed into the fat, jolly, pot-bellied old roisterer whom we all know and love and who reminds us at so many points of the fun loving Silenus of Pagan times. Undoubtedly it was the American, Clement C. Moore, who immortalized the figure and decided the model which all succeeding poets and artists have ever followed.

Who is Saint Nicholas? Who is Santa Claus? How are the two related? This book looks at the history of the legends of St. Nicholas and how he evolved in America to Santa Claus. Primarily, this book seeks to point out the anti-Christian message of St. Nick/Santa Claus. Christmas is a celebration of the Lord of the universe coming to earth to take our place in death to pay for our sins. Scripture records that our salvation is “by faith, not by works, lest anyone should boast.” Meanwhile, Santa waddles onto the Yuletide scene by warning children that they better be good, or they will not get any presents. Throughout the ages St. Nick has been used as a political pawn, as a spokesperson for a particular product or service and as a model of what the Church and any well-meaning Christian must do for others. However, St. Nicholas of legend is recorded as uttering legalistic advice to those he meets. He never comforts or assures with the rich Gospel message, nor does he give glory to God for any “miracles” he performs. This book sets out to teach parents about the truth of this jolly elf. In educating parents, the message may help them determine to what extent they play the “Santa game” with their children. Like Virginia O’Hanlon, we live in a cynical age. Santa has lost much of his luster. In the movies we have a serial-killer Santa and Santa ́s that curse and swear. We see Santas that are impatient with the young charges who come to sit on their lap and request their presents. Tim Burton’s T’was the Nightmare Before Christmas portrays a Santa who scares and frightens young children. On college campuses and in many workplaces, A Visit From Saint Nicholas is reworked and reworded to portray an alcoholic oaf who barges in on Christmas Eve. In song, Santa ́s uncontrollable reindeer run down grandma. Teenagers rework Rudolph the red-nose reindeer as—surprise-an alcoholic. Regional groups often have humorous songs at Santa’s expense that often put the jolly elf in a bad light. The legends and myths of Santa are seen as fraudulent. The expectations of the elf for us “mortals” are seen as unapproachable. The promises and threats are seen as empty and hollow. The cynicism of this caricature is certainly in place.

Who Was St. Nicholas? Who is Santa Claus? Why are they important to Christmas? Together their reputations span centuries across continents. Their stories have been handed down from generation to generation. And yet, we know more about the mythical Santa Claus than we do about his ancestral origin Saint Nicholas. Though Saint Nicholas was a real bishop who lived in Asia Minor, and Santa Claus is his American alter ego, they share one common reality - their connection to a baby born in a manger in Bethlehem.

Why is Christmas portrayed as Santa Claus if we celebrate it due to the birth of Jesus Christ? And why is Easter portrayed as a bunny if we celebrate it due to the resurrection of Jesus Christ? Christmas is not "portrayed as" Santa Claus. Neither is Easter "portrayed as" a bunny. This is not a Christian phenomenon - far from it! It is American post-Christian, un-churched, and non-Christian pop-culture and media that over-emphasized Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny because both were religiously safe in that both could be easily secularized and universalized whereas Christ's birth could not be. But blame Madison Avenue and Hollywood ... and the unseen consequences of the Framers' 18th Century quaint if naive notions regarding religion and religious liberty. (They never imagined America would be anything other than 99% Protestant and/or Unitarian.) At any rate, note the cultural appropriation and exactly where they cut the actual lyrics: For the unchurched, the 2nd bar of Joy to the World is THE LORD IS COME! -- not, Narf, narf, narf! And the 2nd bar to Hark the herald angels sing is GLORY TO THE NEWBORN KING! LEARN MORE...
