It told me something I didn't know but it also touched on a subject close to my heart - religious prejudice and intollerance. I thought that I had commented when I last read it but obviously not. Thank you for this information.GBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10289400344300258872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2278163384636006616.post-69413697093025235302009-11-27T00:25:42.479-05:002009-11-27T00:25:42.479-05:00That is the first time I have heard such a good ex...That is the first time I have heard such a good explanation of the American Thanksgiving.

American/Indian relations contains many examples of biting the hand that fed you. 200 years later, Indian gaming laws may be helping the plight of those whose land we stole/conquered/swiped. Perhaps one aspect of what makes America great, is its willingness at times to say, Mea culpa.

I remember how much I loved re-enacting this story every year in grade school. I so appreciate you helping me to think back on these times and for being grateful to the Indians for their kindnesses to the weary Pilgrims.<br />Have a great Thanksgiving.<br />Hugs,<br />JuneJunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283259375743586344noreply@blogger.com
