I'm just a man who was blessed with an open mind and the ability to analyze things rationally. I'm not special tho, i think everyone person possesses this, its just a matter of letting go of your pride and soul searching to seek the real truth. Thats all I'm looking for.
Tell us what Websters definition of the name Nick has to do with the topic.
Nicholas
masc. proper name, from Gk. Nikholaos, lit. "victory-people," from nike "victory" + laos "people." The saint (obit. 326 C.E.) was a bishop of Myra in Lycia, patron of scholars, especially schoolboys. A popular given name in England in Middle Ages, as was the fem. form Nicolaa, corresponding to Fr. Nicole. Colloquial Old Nick "the devil" is attested from 1643, evidently from the proper name, but for no certain reason.
If it offends you so much than why look it up? We are talking about usage of the name Nick and Santa Claus over time. Its fairly on topic. Why do you respond to everything I say?
Wow you're stupid. The fuckin name Santa Claus derives from the words Saint and Nicholas, a historical person, not the devil.

wera's right. This cat Palehorse just can't read. I been said that the word Santa means saint through one of its translations.
Santa Claus1773 (as St. A Claus, in "New York Gazette"), Amer.Eng., from dialectal Du. Sante Klaas, from M.Du. Sinter Niklaas "Saint Nicholas," bishop of Asia Minor who became a patron saint for children.

If you're looking for the devil look at the history of the character that's recognized TODAY as ''Santa Claus''...NOT THE ACTUAL NAME ITSELF.

Kephrem get off your high mule...all you do is throw around quotes and give your ridiculous opinion on them. I would like to know your education level besides wikipedia.
That wasn't a ridiculous opinion. That was from an online etymology dictionary. Fool!
Too many ad hominems Kephrem get you no respect.
And not everybody has black supremest UPK cult like visions on things.

First of all only Nicky Tooch was called a fool, and that's because he's a fool who doesn't add shit to most discussions I've encountered him in. And son you still detoxing off of Yorks teaching. You ain't got shit to say about anyone else.
^^York is on point with some historical facts - I will give him that - but when something becomes a supremest doctrine - things get dangerous. Supremest as in calling a race devils. Fact is not all white people are evil - just like every race has "devils".
Nicky didn't personally attack you. Debate needs to be in more peaceful means.

real Christmas is on january 7th.....old roman calendar
One) Your enlightener York is a convicted baby rapist. Two) The Truth is supremacist and yes it's dangerous. 3) Devils are devils. And that's the Edomites. And negroes like you who are their advocates. 4) Nicky didn't just attack me, his were words of war towards my culture in the Columbus thread. 5) Mind your fuckin buisness.
