15 year old kid takes notice of this "modern world"
This young fellow from Arizona received an A for his effort.
New Pledge of Allegiance
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If scripture now the class recites,
it violates the Bill Of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or
green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom
scene..
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious
vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith
at all..
In silence alone we must meditate
God's name is prohibited by the state.
(snip)
Matters not if he is selective, only that he's right in his selections and words written to make the point.The Thanksgiving holiday was established in 1863 by President Lincoln - not Washington as he died in 1753.
You are very selective in where you begin and end your quotes on top of the error in dates. George Washington was a Mason, Thomas Jefferson was a Deist and Lincoln was never a member of any church. He was considered a deist but never actually said what his beliefs were. Does that sound like the founders of a Christian nation?
Yes and he also says that anyone ashamed to speak his name, so shall he be ashamed to speak that persons name before the father.15 year old kid takes notice of this "modern world"

No big deal. God prefers that we pray in secret anyway.

he should be able to pray where he wants to as long as he doesn't endanger anyone .Kid is an idiot.
Is that right? Why? Because he upsets your "progressive" sense of "values"???
The kid is a modern day prophet and you prove it.
Pretty sure no one is gonna call the Feds if you pray in school - and you shouldn't be praying in school, anyway.

Look, if you're not even going to ATTEMPT to get your facts straight, there's not much anyone can do for you. Take a moment and actually LEARN something, will you? It will do you no harm.....

Oh, and yes, they sound EXACTLY like the founders of a "Judeo-Christian based" nation.

Your information is not about the national holiday it is about a one of many times that there was a "day of thanks" offered by an official. If you actually looked up the history you would find:
Thanksgiving in the United States was observed on various dates throughout history. From the time of the Founding Fathers until the time of Lincoln, the date Thanksgiving was observed varied from state to state. The final Thursday in November had become the customary date in most U.S. states by the beginning of the 19th century. Thanksgiving was first celebrated on the same date by all states in 1863 by a presidential proclamation of Abraham Lincoln. Influenced by the campaigning of author Sarah Josepha Hale, who wrote letters to politicians for around 40 years trying to make it an official holiday, Lincoln proclaimed the date to be the final Thursday in November in an attempt to foster a sense of American unity between the Northern and Southern states.[25] Because of the ongoing Civil War and the Confederate States of America's refusal to recognize Lincoln's authority, a nationwide Thanksgiving date was not realized until Reconstruction was completed in the 1870s.
On December 26, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a joint resolution of Congress changing the national Thanksgiving Day from the last Thursday in November to the fourth Thursday. Two years earlier, Roosevelt had used a presidential proclamation to try to achieve this change, reasoning that earlier celebration of the holiday would give the country an economic boost.
Thanksgiving Day, currently celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November by federal legislation in 1941, has been an annual tradition in the United States by presidential proclamation since 1863 and by state legislation since the Founding Fathers of the United States. Historically, Thanksgiving began as a tradition of celebrating the harvest of the year.
George Washington

Born
February 22, 1732
Westmoreland, Virginia, British America
I did make a mistake on the date of Washington's death but it was still before Thanksgiving was a national holiday.
Died
December 14, 1799 (aged 67)
Mount Vernon, Virginia, U.S.
He, George Washington, did not proclaim Thanksgiving as a national holiday - That was done by Abraham Lincoln.President George Washington said this when proclaiming our National Thanksgiving Holiday:
"It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God ...."
You stated in your post that

A day of "thanksgiving" has been around since at least as far back as 3500 BCE as recorded in the history of Sumer. Their "thanksgiving" was a week long celebration of the harvest. That practice was continued in almost every culture up to the present day. You have changed what you said to what you can think of to cover your mistake rather than admit it and go on- like I did with the error in my dates.
The Treaty of Tripoly was signed by every member of, congress, the vice president and the president in 1796 and stated in article 11:
"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."
This more or less proves that the USA was not founded on Christian principles. Facts are facts. The USA is not nor has it ever been a Chistian Nation.
My proof was that There were very few Christians among our founders - so where would Christian principles come from?
I proved that Washington did not institute Thnksgiving as a national holiday which was what you claimed.
I also recognized that you haven't the fortitude to admit your mistake and you just keep dodging that fact.

That isn't related to prayer. Nowhere does he tell us to force everyone (non-believers) to stop and be quiet so that we can pray.15 year old kid takes notice of this "modern world"

Cherry picking the bible eh ? This is why people need to study the entire word, then they would be enlightened to the word better, and the time periods in which words are spoken within the word, and how they represent the events and people at different periods or as within the events that are found within the book as told about when read, and how through out time the word does progress as the people progressed in their thoughts and within their actions taken, in which the word does apply to them always and just as well.The Treaty of Tripoly was signed by every member of, congress, the vice president and the president in 1796 and stated in article 11:

No wonder unbelievers don't like Christians. They don't act like it.
James 4:11-12
Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
