Thanksgivings prayer

Category: Atheism
Posted on: November 23, 2006 7:24 PM, by Coturnix

In the past we had to make sure to remember to tell the kids not to make fun of their cousins (and adults) for saying a prayer before the Thanksgivings dinner. We tried to give a personal example by holding hands with other family members, bowing our heads and supressing laughter for the duration.

This year, for the first time, we had a Thanksgivings dinner at home, just the four of us. When the dinner was served and we sat around the table we looked at each other with a question mark on our faces - what to do? My wife saved the day:"Thank God we do not have to say a prayer tonight!"

Amen.

Then, we had some "Evolution" wine from Sokol Blosser Winery.
