thanks Aadil,

you will see many posts tomorrow about "Turkey Day" and I will be one of the bloggers that will be cooking and posting at the same time! lol

Pumpkin pie is also traditional for this day but according to American History there was no Turkey of pumping pie that first Thanksgiving Day smile

Not too many Americans know this but when you become an American Citizen like myself ,

...snakes are worshiped in India aren't they? whistle

Not those ones...bigsmile

Some cultures esp in the hilly north regions do consider snakes to be auspicious but some dont.

I understand that. There are almost as many different religions in your country as there are stars in Bollywood. lol

I'm glad we didn't have 'social studies' when I was at school. In those days we had 'religious education' instead. Of course, that was mostly just another name for 'christian indoctrination'. In high school we had a very liberal teacher for religious instruction who insisted that we learn a bit about other beliefs. That started me wondering how ten billion beliefs that aren't christian could all be wrong. I came to the conclusion that the idea That God had chosen to reveal himself exclusively to an elitist group of people didn't make sense. I figure that God must have revealed himself to all people. This is something that is also taught in some religions.
