Never once in my life was I a believer
How does it feel?
when i was a kid it didn't feel like much, just felt like i was satisfying the adults' expectations.
Santa was more real, supported by evidence. I was scared of his magic powers. Also that fucker was holding my treats hostage.
Did you believe in Santa Claus?
I did. I was kind of scared of losing my treats and disliked being watched and judged constantly
I found out Santa wasn't real when I realized he had the same handwriting as my parents. Anyway I'm an atheist.
Santa isn't real? 
Which makes our staggering annual loses in troops and materiel during the war on Christmas even more perplexing.
When I was in elementary school, I wanted to become a priest to spread the word and joy of god.
I also prayed to god to save me from abuse and loneliness. Nothing happened.
