the orthodox lent sounds similar to what Catholic Lent was >.> LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 16/02/2010 05:21:10 PM
at least, how some of the books I've read that were placed in England. The one that had the most about it was set at the time of Edward the First (I believe)

I'm not an expert on the subject by any means whatsoever...that's just what it sounds like :tinfoilhat:

You could go to the Vatican.. Kel - 16/02/2010 02:04:39 PM 864 Views
Non-essential internet sounds like a haaard one. Lupine - 16/02/2010 05:38:25 AM 923 Views
I'm actually looking forward to it. I'm quite good at not doing something if I have a reason. Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 05:48:34 AM 911 Views

Great Lent already began on Monday. Tom - 16/02/2010 01:45:16 PM 867 Views
So you aren't doing any of the fasts or dietary restrictions? Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 05:08:14 PM 761 Views
No, I'm not following any restrictions. Tom - 16/02/2010 09:36:52 PM 780 Views

Pretty much. Tom - 16/02/2010 09:38:48 PM 1039 Views
That's still on the books for Episcopalians, if I recall correctly, but as an option. Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 11:48:24 PM 825 Views
Haha, you aren't kidding! Avendesora - 16/02/2010 08:14:08 PM 886 Views
It was good to know that I could do it, though. Tom - 16/02/2010 09:39:32 PM 915 Views
I'll give up something. Kel - 16/02/2010 02:02:02 PM 756 Views
I'm not a Christian, but I've given things up in the name of Lent. The Shrike - 16/02/2010 02:20:14 PM 790 Views
It's definitely socially handy. Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 05:19:22 PM 850 Views
which is really rather sad. LadyLorraine - 16/02/2010 05:28:35 PM 845 Views
Is it weird that I really like Lent? Darth_Katie - 16/02/2010 05:21:54 PM 826 Views
Perhaps it is. But, less so than lint, I'm thinking. LiterateDog - 16/02/2010 05:25:28 PM 869 Views
I actually do enjoy cleaning lint traps in the dryer. It's fun! *NM* Darth_Katie - 16/02/2010 05:34:08 PM 455 Views
it's an adventure *NM* LadyLorraine - 17/02/2010 07:33:26 PM 443 Views
No. It's foolishness. LiterateDog - 16/02/2010 05:26:53 PM 887 Views

Your drier must be hard-core Protestant. I'm sorry. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 11:49:15 PM 461 Views
I don't think anyone here does I guess it's not our tradition (though I'm not even Christian) *NM* Lordling - 16/02/2010 08:04:55 PM 471 Views
