(no subject)
I hope no one minds this, sorry if it's too off-topic or anything.
I've read some people online debating on the Pagan origins of Santa Clause, namely the Norse origins. I've done a Google and yahoo search and found a few things that briefly touch on this matter but nothing that really goes into much detail. I admit that my google skills are lacking, so it's probably just me.
Any opinions of the theory that Santa Clause is actually Odin watered down? Any links you might care to share with me please? Nothing too "OMGWTFBBQ they stole our holidays and everything OHNOES! gasp, faint, light a torch and storm the village" Hense why I came here first. :D
Big thanks!
