Since today is the first day of lent, what are you eating today? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

smmrpm · 03-01-2006, 11:00 AM

I am just now going through with the classes to become catholic so this is the first Ash Wednesday I won't be eating meat. My husband is catholic already and now our whole family will be!

We are having tuna helper tonight! But the chicken thing I am not sure about!! I had chicken for lunch - so I don't know now if I have already messed it up. I haven't figured out what I am giving up - I think it will be chocolat though since I LOVE it!! Wish me luck!

Full Gospel/Pentecostal's do not observe any dietary laws and restrictions, we do not observe lent or give up things, but respect those who do and when it comes to food issues.. "if food is not involved we do not attend"..LOL

Well now if us Irish Catholic's had to give up Beer for lent we might be a bit upset, but we handle giving up meat on Ash Wed and all Fri till Easter as long as we get to have a beer with our veggies

I was raised a Baptist....we have issues other than food. No alcohol, no dancing, no card playing/gambling, no cussing, and who remembers what else....how 'bout no nothing 'cept attending church... the road to h-lll is paved with temptation

Less, you want to join us sinning Baptists....I think NOT. Btw, we are having standing rib roast for dinner. Standing rib roast right before Wednesday evening church service.

Disclaimer - I am not dissing anyone's religion only my own. The way I see it....all of them pretty much believe in the same thing...a higher power or God, right? Just that somebody's sure gonna be surprised at the pearly gates and their verison is all wrong...we Baptist's included.

PS I am not attending Wednesday night church service either...there's another black mark beside my name in that book that I'll have to come up with an explaination for. I think I may be sick today

cindy0721 · 03-01-2006, 12:55 PM

Holy cats! You're with THE Catholic and he LET you order chicken??? Your whole family is lapsed

God doesn't have to pay for lettuce, silly, he gets it for free

bchgirl · 03-01-2006, 01:06 PM

Btw, I can think of a lot better reasons not to get into heaven than eating chicken on Ash Wednesday, so I think you're ok

StewiesMom · 03-01-2006, 01:15 PM

So we are doing the no meat, chicken, or LAMB thing but Ashes just are not fitting into today's schedule we needed to get last minute baseball equipment. Season (official practice) starts tomorrow. Talk about going to h_ll.

PS Stewies Mom not sure if the chicken in Lean cuise counts as actual MEAT!..

.So I think your safe. Sorry couldn't resist that one.
