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 651 Views
Non-essential internet sounds like a haaard one. Lupine - 16/02/2010 05:38:25 AM 704 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 686 Views

Great Lent already began on Monday. Tom - 16/02/2010 01:45:16 PM 644 Views
So you aren't doing any of the fasts or dietary restrictions? Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 05:08:14 PM 565 Views
No, I'm not following any restrictions. Tom - 16/02/2010 09:36:52 PM 579 Views

Pretty much. Tom - 16/02/2010 09:38:48 PM 819 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 616 Views
Haha, you aren't kidding! Avendesora - 16/02/2010 08:14:08 PM 683 Views
It was good to know that I could do it, though. Tom - 16/02/2010 09:39:32 PM 686 Views
I'll give up something. Kel - 16/02/2010 02:02:02 PM 568 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 600 Views
It's definitely socially handy. Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 05:19:22 PM 632 Views
which is really rather sad. LadyLorraine - 16/02/2010 05:28:35 PM 631 Views
Is it weird that I really like Lent? Darth_Katie - 16/02/2010 05:21:54 PM 613 Views
Perhaps it is. But, less so than lint, I'm thinking. LiterateDog - 16/02/2010 05:25:28 PM 660 Views
I actually do enjoy cleaning lint traps in the dryer. It's fun! *NM* Darth_Katie - 16/02/2010 05:34:08 PM 355 Views
it's an adventure *NM* LadyLorraine - 17/02/2010 07:33:26 PM 341 Views
No. It's foolishness. LiterateDog - 16/02/2010 05:26:53 PM 675 Views

Your drier must be hard-core Protestant. I'm sorry. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/02/2010 11:49:15 PM 365 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 366 Views
