Santa Claus is Satan?
Well, this preacher says so... 
James L. Melton is a Baptist pastor and author of a long series of Chick-like religious tracts (just rants, though – no illustrations) in which he elaborates upon his views of God, religion and popular culture, unfettered by such worldly constraints as reason, sanity, coherence or understanding.
A good example of Melton’s way of seeing the world is his rant against one of the most notorious threats to the world today: Santa Claus. According to Melton, “Since God's word warns us to BEWARE of tradition (Col. 2:8), we shouldn’t be surprised to find the Devil right in the middle of the world’s most celebrated holiday. Lucifer’s desire has always been to dethrone God and exalt himself (Isa. 14:12-15). He desires worship (Luke 4
; II Ths. 2:3-4). Perhaps you’ve never thought of it, but please note how Satan robs the Lord Jesus Christ of His glory by spreading the Santa Claus tradition …” In other words, though Melton would probably say that Santa doesn’t exist, he kind of believes in Santa and Santa’s powers anyway, only that Melton’s Santa is really a bad guy (maybe along these lines). And just to emphasize: you don’t get much crazier than that. Among the ominous traits of Santa pointed out by Melton is that “[t]radition holds that Santa Claus lives at the North Pole, a place ABOVE the rest of us” – yep, it’s all uphill to the North Pole, right? Just look at the Earth. Furthermore, Santa is omniscient and omnipotent (he “has the ability to carry presents to over a billion children,” and – the clincher – “Santa” is an anagram of “Satan”. If that doesn’t convince you … (Melton has not, as far as I can see, discussed the fact that among man’s favorite pets is called “dog”).

Both wear red. (Duh.)
Both live and work in an environment with an extreme temperature.
Satan FELL from Heaven. Santa works with an ELLF. (The extra "L" is for "Lucifer."
......then everyone should quit organized religion?
the Amanita Muscaria, everybody knows that 
Christmas has become less about god and more about money. It sends conflicting messages that if you are bad all year you get jack shit (it ties in with living your life a certain way and christmas is 'death', ie the day of judgement). However kids see lots of 'bad' people getting much better gifts than themselves which starts them to thinking that santa/god aren't real and the whole 'be good towards others all the time and you will get a reward' is crap.
Santa is also generally seen as white so he is privileged. White kids usually get more toys, he employs a race of elves in slave labor camps, he forces reindeer to fly a heavy sleigh, he eats fattening cookies, and supports the factory farming of cows for their milk.
He has been known to hold open chimneys for Mrs. Claus and it should be noted she does not have her own identity but is subservient to and dependent upon him (what is her first name anyway?). He gives out violent toys (guns, army action figures...note he uses that sexist term and gives girls dolls).
He watches little kids sleep and wants them to sit on his lap - in return he gives them gifts.
We need to ban him 
edit, dang, too slow on that one =)
Almost makes going to pee at the Port Authority in New York an enjoyable experience! Although I can almost imagine the pictures that would go with this story.
(meanwhile, at the North Pole, Satan and his tiny minions are plotting to steal your soul )
