[/quote] That's not what the issue here is right now. No matter how you agree or disagree with Fidei, your last post was condescending and arrogant. I can see why he's mad, and hope he doesn't get a suspension over it.

[/quote] It was condescending and arrogant because he assumed that because I'm 19, i've never had troubles in my life nor have I learned anything about anything. He couldn't be further from the truth. In all honesty, if that's the kind of "arguments" that are allowed around here, I hope I'm suspended. I'm better off spending my time elsewhere.

add Posted November 28, 2009 Author Posted November 28, 2009 Thanksgiving is a good time to recall our many blessings and to express our gratitude for them with a full heart, not only with our words but our deeds as well.

I don't see why he's working so hard to defend thanksgiving as a Christian holiday. Be thankful everyday. You don't need a holiday. [/quote] We don't need a holiday to be thankful individually, but as a nation, we do. Jim

There is a generational, emotional, and maturational gap between us that sometimes cannot be easily bridged or explained, or can be expressed poorly.
