Historically, why did people start to prepare presents on Christmas?
Correct answer: To express respect and gratitude

The magi were astrologers and the Star they followed was in the heavens, a Sign of some excellent occurrence about to take place.

I am not sure about the question, read about the story of St Nicholas, he was the Saint the whole Santa Claus (Saint Nicholas) story based on. He was known for giving present to kids around him to make them happy. We visited his ancient church last year in Turkey / Demre, quite interesting.

even though Christmas is a pagan holiday because of Santa Claus but we celebrate Christmas is the birth of Jesus Christ.

Mythologies/ faiths/ religions/ cults/ beliefs,/ etc. (pick a term you prefer, they are all interchangeable). It is Groovy to learn the different lores of old & new.
