Quotation: Thanksgiving In General

It must be an odd feeling to be thankful to nobody in particular. Christians in public institutions often see this odd thing happening on Thanksgiving Day. Everyone in the institution seems to be thankful "in general." It's very strange. It's a little like being married in general.

Cornelius Plantinga, Jr.
in "Assurances of the Heart"
Christianity Today magazine, Vol. 39, #13
