The Real St Nick

Today is St Nicholas Day. St. Nicholas was a real person who defended the divinity of Jesus at the council of Nicea. He argued against Arius who didn't think Jesus was divine and got so angry that he slapped Ariius. I like the idea that he slapped Arious not because I endorse violence-but that he had a temper. That humanizes him since Saints are often seems as having no faults Some forensic work was done on his skull and you can see what he probably looked like if you scroll down in this link:
