Faint roots? Santa Claus is literally derived from the Christian religious figure St. Nicholas.
My point is that many atheist's are hypocrites when attempting to co-op a Christian holiday. If they are true atheist's they should not be celebrating a Christian holiday.

Why is it called Christmas?
Co-opt?!!?! If anyone dares to say, "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas", it's a war on Christmas. I'm just obliging you guys by playing along.
