something i don't get about thanksgiving

how can non-Christians celebrate thanksgiving? to whom are they thankful?

first off, they call it turkey day (which is SO wrong)
secondly, they thank each other. nice, but if you really stop and think about it, it's pretty sad.

they're grateful for things/glad to have them, but they don't think about where they come from, as hobbitsister said... i think it's kind of like oprah sometimes -- she talks about being thankful/grateful/spiritual & all that, but there's no real talk of WHY! (it's all about the "human spirit")

in one of my spanish classes in college, we were talking about religious beliefs & 1 girl said she didn't believe in God -- when we asked her if there was anything she believed in she said she believes in mankind (how disappointing!)

it's sad, because think of how often mankind lets people down.
