Re: Do you observe Lent? if so, what are you giving up this year?

*nods*

I can understand that. My husband is a cradle Catholic who's actually an atheist. He doesn't have the same deep-seated need that I do to find a religious system that works for me. He also finds value in Catholicism without necessarily believing in the god part of it.

I also take huge issue with not examining the reasons why you are doing something. I know this jackass who is not religious at all who crafted his own cross and who likes to climb up on it in his yard to observe Ash Wednesday. And he always gives up something for Lent even though it has no meaning for him. I always want to smack him upside the head and say, "You're on a diet, asshole! That's not the same!

I find that with a lot of Catholics who were born into it, they sort of give it up. I haven't been to church in forever, but mostly because I work on Sundays and it's just not what we do. But I went on my own in college (going to a school in the South encouraged that, but being Catholic I was still slightly outcast)

I don't follow a lot of the beliefs but Lent is the one thing I do every year. I take it as a small sacrifice. I try to remember not to eat meat on Fridays, but that's not always the case.

Yeah, I grew up in and still live in the South, and there's plenty Catholics but Protestant Christianity dominates and it's bizarre how many Protestant Christians don't think Catholicism is Christianity. I was raised to believe Catholics aren't Christians. Bleck.
