Abstract

The number of people who reject Thanksgiving is increasing each year. One of the major arguments against Thanksgiving is the allegation that it introduces religion to American society. Our modern society has strongly disregarded the religious dimension of the holiday by promoting it as the unofficial start of winter or Black Friday’s eve. I note a major issue with this approach because the twofold dimension of Thanksgiving is not only rooted in American history but also is noteworthy for being celebrated. Celebrating Thanksgiving may allow us to appreciate God’s grace in our historical past and today. In reflecting on my experience, Thanksgiving is still of great moral significance.
