Don't they celebrate Easter also? Yes, I believe they do, and that is all about the resurrection of Jesus.

Interesting question. As far as I know the only Christian holidays in the US and Italy are Christmas and Easter. Although I'm sure a lot of people pray on Thanksgiving, it's not a religious day. The colonists were just happy to be alive and thanked some native Americans for helping them.

Easter, most likely, celebrating Jesus's ressurection. As a matter of fact, in some European countiries, Easter is a bigger holiday than Christmas because it lasts for 7 days, from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday.

Thanksgiving does not celebrate God. It is a secular holiday.
