Those people should stop celebrating them too, especially since they're not biblical holidays.<br /><br />It's a real shame that this kind of attitude, infighting, ingratitude, etc are inversely proportional to Jewish population density in a given place. These people think they're already living in Israel because of the number of Jews around them and they consider everything their due.Ookamikunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01145237927656807738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8360283326769930021.post-14453255408601566222008-11-24T13:03:00.000-05:002008-11-24T13:03:00.000-05:00Amen to everything you said.

That statement is so inane (to say nothing of the smugness which accompanies this reply) and, like you, I always give the answer about our yomim tovim. We always thank Hashem for all the great miracles that He has done for us. And yet, we thank Him especially for certain miracles on certain days of the year. (Shabbos is also a related example.)<BR/><BR/>Happy Thanksgiving.<BR/><BR/>(By the way, you expect people who collect food stamps etc. to have the decency thank America. If they have that decency, they wouldn't be taking/"stealing" these food stamps to begin with.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
