People dont like giving up their traditions. According to some Dutch / European accounts, Santa was able to enslave the devil for one day out of the year, who is Black Pete = Zwarte Piet(an). Initially, Black Pete was allegedly used to scare white children. Then Black Pete also became the symbol of the conquered Moors / Black people. One has to trace the European HATRED of Black people = the Moors to fully comprehend the underlying symbolism of Zwate Piet. Study Charles Martel of France. And then study the expulsion of the Muslims / Moors from Spain in 1492 followed by the slave trade of Blacks from Africa. Historically, in Ancient Kemet, before the Bible and the Holy Quran, Set(an) = Satan = Shaitan was depicted as the white skin demon, who killed and dismembered the Black god, Azar = Osiris. Later Aset = Isis used the penis of Azar to impregnate herself with the Black god / Christ child, Heru = Horus, the Hero born to avenge Azar by killing Set(an) = Satan, the white skin demon. Ironically, Old Nick is defined in most competent English dictionaries, as the devil. The fat white skin, Santa Claus is often referred to by his nick name, i.e., Old (St.) Nick. Arguably, Santa and Satan are synonym anagrams of the other. Compare Black Pete = Zwarte Piet(an) origins with the demonic Krampus, whose job it is to punish children. By definition, Krampus means claws. Santa Claus = Santa Claws = Satan Claws = Satan Krampus. In this Dutch Xmas saga, the actual identity of Santa Claus = Claws = Krampus, as Satan has been displaced upon the slave, Black Pete = Zwarte Piet(an). Presently, Black Pete represents the Black happy, dumb slave, who is the servant of Santa = Satan, the slave master, who caters to the slave masters children; and Krampus represents the alter ego, the unhappy demonic slave, who punishes Santas = Satans children. For those, who read the Bible, study Jeremiah 10:1 - 5 about the condemnation of what we call, Xmas trees. And study Revelation 2:6, 15 about Jesus condemning the behavior of the Nicolaitanes / Nicolaitans (devils), who corrupted the Church. In the name, Nicolaitans, we find the root, Nick = devil.
