A Catholic Thanksgiving blessing

Remembers that Squanto was a Catholic convert (of the right kind, no doubt), and that despite the vile English Protestants like John Smith (who is thwarted by the always loving and Beautiful Spanish Catholics) and those anti-Catholic Puritan separatists, Squanto is the Saint to be venerated because he saved their butts for only the purist of reasons.  That some of the Indians embracing the Pilgrims may have had to do with local Indian politics is, of course, ignored.

Yep, that's about what I've come to expect around Thanksgiving time in the world of Catholic apologetics.  An interesting take, when compared to this piece at an Orthodox site.  Heck, the Orthodox piece even seems to suggest the Pilgrims are worth celebrating! I have no doubt that Orthodox Christians are prepared to point out the sins of America's past and present.  I just don't see the singular obsession with it, or with the Protestants in general, that always seems to creep into Catholic apologetics.
