Good for him. I don't think the wholesale setup of children is funny. Do people ever stop and think about how often adults outright lie to children? Where is the justification for this? Do adults create these fictions out of some sick desire for amusement? Why is it fun to set up whole delusional systems for kids?
It's not.
Calling lying "magic" is crap, by the way. If I lie to you about something and then called it magic, I don't think you'd be amused. So why the double standard for kids?
Kids get lied to enough. Santa is one more needless lie they don't deserve.
