Overindulging in Thanksgiving food may be wrong, but being with your family, on a day particularly set aside for giving thanks to the Judeo-Christian GOD, while having NO pagan connotations is good in my book- but some brothers esteem no days higher than any other, and that's fine with me too (not that I am the judge or anything, or what I think matters).

But is it REALLY about the judeo-christian God???
I mean, when you think of the first Thanksgiving, between the pilgrims and the indians....only half of them were giving Thanks to the Christian God.
So technically doesn't Thanksgiving have pagan roots as well?
I think just to be safe you better shun turkey this year!
