Our Principles and Policies radio show for Thursday November 24, 2011. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis of the Institute For Principled Policy explode myths about the Pilgrims and Thanksgiving on our Thanksgiving Day edition of Principles and Policies.
From USA Today-
It used to be common knowledge that America’s first national Thanksgiving Day was established by President George Washington in 1789. While a few modern critics might be rankled by, as Washington’s proclamation puts it, an official “day of public thanksgiving and prayer,” for most Americans the holiday stands as an enduring reminder of Washington’s wise vision for American religious freedom.
Both chambers of Congress requested that Washington establish an official day to thank “Almighty God” for allowing the American people to create a republican “form of government for their safety and happiness.”
The vast majority of Americans still believe that was a good decision. In a survey conducted earlier this month, respondents were asked whether the federal government did the right thing when it established Thanksgiving Day as a national holiday. They were told that the government recommended that Americans engage in thanksgiving and prayer to “acknowledge with grateful hearts” the blessings of Almighty God.

Barry Sheets, CEO of Principled Consulting, LLC and Director of the Institute For Principled Policy, continues what he started at Camp American 2008. Barry digs deep and extracts the Christian foundations of the men and women of the “founding era.”
With great care Barry demonstrates that the founding fathers were not just a group of “deists and skeptics” but were overwhelmingly believers, deeply ingrained with both the Bible and its greatest expositors and the teachings of the great thinkers of the Reformation, who argued for the application of biblical principle to all of life. Even men of the founding era who were unorthodox in their faith demonstrated unmistakable marks of the Christian worldview in their writings and actions.
