Santa Claus tied to St Nicholas sparks local church debate

Clergy in Lorain and Elyria clash over Santa Claus and Christmas meaning. Some honor St Nicholas as a charitable pioneer, others warn against consumerism and urge keeping Christ at the center. Several pastors emphasize Nicholas's acts aiding girls with dowries and warn of commercial excess. Locally, views range from endorsing a Christmas Jesus focus to affirming a real St Nicholas presence in Santa Claus.
