Thanks-Giving Celebration?

[Guest guest]

"The

objective of Thanksgiving when it was dedicated as a

National Holiday by the government. Was not even

about honoring the pilgrims or anyone [then

who(m)?], it was simple saying giving thanks is a

GOOD thing to DO (DUH) and that we

should take time once a year to look

back and be grateful for all we have be(en)

blessed with and have accomplished as well as for our

family, friends, what ever is important to us." -NancyFirst

of all, a person cannot genuinely say what the objective {in

sense of intention} of this holly-day was/is when it was designated

outside their full knowledge of awareness. It can be very arrogant

and naive on their parts to even attempt such a delusion. One must

have a critical & analytical thinking process within that

inexplicable core of their personage. I respectfully dissent from

the assertions of Dr. Natural and Nancy equally.

 

 

 

 

We

must do our homework, if we are to have any viable cohesion as

intelligent people.

All

the evidence is right in the public domain, within an hour's worth of

research, ones

foundation

can be immensely maturated in this matter. Awareness abates all

ignorance

and

fear/hatred indeed. Let us clearly examine the evidence and be

evermore mindfully

precise

in approaching issues of celebration and repression of one culture

over another.

CORNUCOPIA,

korn-yoo-KO-pee-uhOne of the most recognizable symbols of

Thanksgiving is the cornucopia, also called horn of plenty. It is a

decorative motif, originating in ancient Greece, that symbolizes

abundance. The original cornucopia

was a curved goat's horn filled to overflowing with fruit and grain.

It symbolizes the horn possessed by Zeus's nurse, the Greek nymph

Amalthaea, which could be filled with whatever the owner wished.
