圣诞老人【圣诞老人的由来】
圣诞老人原来的名字叫做尼古拉，在第四世纪的时候，出生在小亚细亚巴大拉城，家庭富有，父母亲是非常热心的天主教友，不幸他的父母早逝。尼古拉长大以后，便把丰富的财产，全部捐送给贫苦可怜的人，自己则出家修道，献身教会，终生为社会服务。尼古拉后来作了神父，而且还升为主教。他一生当中，做了很多慈善的工作，他最喜欢在暗中帮助穷人，圣诞老人是他后来的别号，这个名字是出自他暗中送钱，帮助三个女孩子的故事。
The Origin of Christmas
Dec 25 is the day that most Christianities celebrate the birth of Jesus.
There was no Christmas at first. It is said that the first Christmas was in 138, the first in record was in 336. But the bible doesn’t indicate on what day was Jesus born, so different Christmas days were celebrated in different places. Until 440, Roman church court fixed Dec 25 as the Christmas day.
In 1607, religious leaders all over the world met in Bethlehem and reached an agreement that Dec 25 would be the Christmas day. Since then, most Christians began to celebrate Dec 25, no matter where they are.
From the 19th century, with the popularizing of Christmas and Santa Claus, most people, no matter they believe in Christian or not began to celebrate Christmas.In the bible, Jesus was born at night, so the night of Dec 24 is known as the Christmas night.
