圣誕老人【圣誕老人的由來】
圣誕老人原來的名字叫做尼古拉，在第四世紀(jì)的時(shí)候，出生在小亞細(xì)亞巴大拉城，家庭富有，父母親是非常熱心的天主教友，不幸他的父母早逝。尼古拉長(zhǎng)大以后，便把豐富的財(cái)產(chǎn)，全部捐送給貧苦可憐的人，自己則出家修道，獻(xiàn)身教會(huì)，終生為社會(huì)服務(wù)。尼古拉后來作了神父，而且還升為主教。他一生當(dāng)中，做了很多慈善的工作，他最喜歡在暗中幫助窮人，圣誕老人是他后來的別號(hào)，這個(gè)名字是出自他暗中送錢，幫助三個(gè)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.
