Entry: The Real St. Nicholas Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_real_st_nicholas#10695 Post contents: The story about St. Nicolaus and Arius is, sadly, apocryphal. If he punched anybody at Nicea, it would have been a follower of Arius, since Arius probably didn't attend the council, since he wasn't a bishop. Eusebius of Nicomedia (not to be confused with Eusebius of Caesarea) was the chief spokesperson for the Arians at Nicea I. Sent at: 2008 09 05
