Guest Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 When I was younger in school I would see my friends participating in lent and I'd wonder why they were voluntarily giving up all this awesome stuff. /one parent atheist, other agnostic.

Guest Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 i don't consider lent a religious activity. just a challenge of the will. had my own lent last year when i put myself through a 40 days & 40 nights (a la josh hartnett) starting in january.

Guest Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 yeah, except when i did it, i refrained some self indulgence as well. not fun. when i say i don't consider it religious, it's because me giving something up is not in the name of a god or belief. just a challenge for myself.

companyinkrecs Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Lent is cancelled. There's no Pope. Popin' Aint Easy. I gave up fast food/soda as my New Year's resolution, which is just as stupid as lent. And let's not turn this into a religion debate, we're all mature enough to realize there is no god so we can skip that topic. jase, seamoney, Emo Revival and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhook Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I am going to give up buying records. I hope HE accepts this sacrifice and accepts me into Heaven. HE is LORD and I give myself to HIM, Amen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcm1610 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 The one assistant coach we have for the girls' high school hockey team I coach told me that yesterday her little sister texted her and was like, "I didn't want to ask them because I'm embarrassed, but why are all these people walking around with dirt on their foreheads?" I thought that was awesome. 18 years old and this girl has apparently never encountered Ash Wednesday before. I find it all stupid, though. Baptized some sort of Protestant, can't even remember which (Baptist?), then "welcomed" into Catholicism at a young age, and I was done with it around 14 and very, very anti-religion when I hit ~20. Now I just don't understand how people believe in the stories, but I'm less combative about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikeguitars Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 So essentially, your not giving up anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 No, I'm giving up not eating meat on Fridays. I loved not eating meat on Fridays. I wait every year for Lent just to not do that. This is my sacrifice. This is my cross to bear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikeguitars Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Well no meat fridays is a default, but if you enjoy it why not do it year round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
