Below I have copied Lincoln's Proclamation and all Proclamations from 1940
to 1949. You will see in every proclamation they are giving thanks and pray
to GOD.



So, is that the Catholic God, the Protestant God, the Born Again God, the
Jewish God, the Muslim God, or could it be the God of any modern, monotheistic
faith? One could give thanks to "God" in any number of religions.

Mixing Thanksgiving with Christmas is clever, but not accurate. The God in the
religious version of Christmas is not the Jewish God, the Muslim God, etc. Only
that portion of the Christian Trinity represented by Jesus. The Christmas Story
isn't even acknowledged
by several branches of Christianity.

Incidentally, Muslims revere Jesus very much like Christians respect Moses,
David, John the Baptist, or what not. You *might* even find a version of the
Christmas story in the Koran- (I don't know)- but that doesn't make the
Christmas story a "religious" event for them. Until we rewrite the constitution
there is no room for the government to spend tax dollars promoting
one religious faith or another.
