I never said the moving to America was because of Thanksgiving. You're missing the point.[Nook said:,Nov 21 2010, 01:02:21 AM]Besides, the moving to America was because of the religion problems.*trevor said:Bacon Boy... he's right, you were wrong, lay off of him.Bacon Boy said:Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada. Thanksgiving is a holiday to express thankfulness, gratitude, (and/or appreciation to God), family and friends for which all have been blessed of material possessions and relationships. Traditionally, it has been a time to give thanks for a bountiful harvest. This holiday has since moved away from its religious roots.[Nook said:,Nov 11 2010, 03:42:28 PM]

It's not really about the Pilgrims at all.
Not Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving was created because the Pilgrims were thankful for what they had in their new lives. So, we give thanks around the time they did to commemorate it.
