Trying to argue over who owns Thanksgiving is a childish sentiment. The holiday of Thanksgiving is neither Catholic nor Protestant, it is American.

Absolutely agree...

Thank YOU!

I’m Catholic and this is silly.

I find the post to be informative and interesting. Discussing history is never childish but responding to the discussion in a snotty two sentence blurb is.

I agree.

The above is an interesting but slightly biased narrative.

The Catholic CHurch was every bit as rigorous in its persecution of “heretics” as the Protestants were of each other and Catholics.

The entire reformation period was a most unfortunate one as while fellow Christians were slaughtering each other - frequently over trivial matters nobody could ever prove one way or another - despite the very similar beliefs of all of them, the Muslims were advancing west and north out of Asia and Africa into Central Europe and the central Mediterranean are even going as far afield as England Ireland the North Atlantic to secure Christian slaves.

HISTORY IS REPEATING ITSELF.

This time Christianity is destroying itself from within over issues involving activist non-traditional clergy while Islam is in the heart of Europe and threatening the Americas and the un-Muslim parts of Africa.

Very true ...

But nothing says "Protestant" like a hat with a buckle on it ...

Unless you're a leprechaun ...
