[QUOTE="WhiteyMacD, post: 1645334, member: 7633"] Saint Nicholas was real... that part of Christmas is not of Pagan origin. The pagan parts are stuff like the tree, lights, wreaths and yule logs. The story of St. Nick is actually not far off from real. However, his gift giving wasnt limited to 1 time a year. He was of a wealthy family and donated most of his inheritance to the poor over the course of his life. Basically, he would drop coins in the shoes of the poor which were left outside by the door to the house. He's also the patron saint of Children, Sailors, Merchants, Prostitutes and repentant thieves among other things. ;) [/QUOTE]
