Every good child is a testimony to Saint Nicholas
Every good child is a testimony to Saint Nicholas☜If Saint Nicholas did not deliver presents to good children, then children would have no incentive to be good.

The argument from first Claus »
The argument from first Claus
The argument from first Claus☜Adults act as Santa for children because others acted as Santa for them when they were children. But this cannot go back in time forever, that is logically impossible. Therefore there must have been a prime mover (first Claus), who is, by proxy, responsible for all presents.☜98CE71
