Isn't the answer obvious? He is not real therefore he does not exist sadly.

:zomg: How can you suggest such a thing?
Santa is a sobriquet of St Nicholas. The Saints are all real and alive in Heaven. So "Santa" is totes real.

I'm agnostic so I don't like to rule things like this out.

We know that "All lemons are yellow" as it is defined to be true.
Therefore the statement that (“All lemons are yellow" OR "Santa Claus exists”) must also be true, since the first part is true.
However, if "Not all lemons are yellow" (and this is also defined to be true), Santa Claus must exist - otherwise statement 2 would be false. It has thus been "proven" that Santa Claus exists. The same could be applied to any assertion, including the statement "Santa Claus does not exist".

The truth is bitter sadly.

Yes. I'm right here.
“If this sentence is true, then Santa Claus
exists.” Suppose it is a true sentence; then its hypothesis is true
by assumption, as is the implication asserted by the sentence, so
Santa Claus exists. Thus, we have shown that if the sentence is
true, then Santa Claus exists. That is precisely what the sentence
asserts, so we have proved the sentence. Therefore, it is true, and
consequently Santa Claus does exist.
