This is a joke, right?

Maybe a reference to this?

Right, but Steyn is also satirizing an actual sermon given a few days ago where the vicar did tell kids there is no Santa Claus.

Most C of E clergy are truly wacky today.

Yes, Steyn does a lot of satire. He's making fun of a vicar who told children there was no Santa, and an idiot columnist named Harold Pinter.
