Answer 1

It's when christian Americans thank their god for letting them kill all of the Native Americans.

Answer 2

OK, first of all you need to learn to edit. Most of what you wrote is rambling and incoherent.



Thanksgiving is not a Christian celebration by any measure. It was established by the US Government and the date set by law. It is based on the harvest feast the Pilgrams shared with the local natives in 1621 to celebrate surviving their first year in the New World. That's all it is, really, a good, old-fashioned, harvest festival that got moved to late Autumn.



Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is the traditional start of the Christmas shopping season. I agree that it has gotten badly out of hand and now people are beginning to revolt against the insanity of it.

Answer 3

Thanksgiving is a Christian Holiday that is celibrated by all of gods children to thank god for all the wonderful things he has done for them individually every year.-Jesus Christ

For all of your dreams and wishes to come true, Pray the Holy Rosary for world peace and for all of Gods children to pray the Holy Rosary, And explore and discover the many gifts of APPARITIONS and the PIETA PRAYER BOOK that God has sent for your spiritual guidance, enjoyment and enrichment and great will be your rewards in heaven.

Merry Christmas,and here is a loving hug for all of Gods children.

The Holy Family

Answer 4

Christ-ian = the end of the fLAWs.

Ameri-can = nation still under law.



Some day America will grow UP,

by "grow in grace" void of fLAWs.



If not, then like twice fallen Baby-lon,

fallen to Great<--Greater<--Greatest,

it will get double what it dished out,

by having Great tribulation until

all kindreds wail instead of rejoice

Answer 5

It's a national holiday not a Christian one.
