Christmas trees originated in Germany during the 1800's, well after christianity was established. Christmas was celebrated on the same time as some popular pagan festival. Saint Nicolaus wasn't around before christmas. Although If I am correct, the american idea of christmas with presents and so forth is celebrated on Dec. 5 and is called St. Nicolaus Day(or sinterklaas I would assume).
