Lent is over;Time to sin again?

  Author:  51979  Category:(Angels) Created:(4/2/2002 8:49:00 PM)

I am a Christian and choose not to participate in lent. But to those which do I pose this question. I have found that alot of you, once Easter rolls around, delve into whatever you gave up that whole time. I ask you why? All that work to give up something bad and then boom, all gone. Yesterday I pasted somebody that sweared, they paused for a moment then breathed a sigh of relief..."Lent is over," She said, "wooohooo!" And then started to cuss like crazy. I have found many of these cases, so why spend all that time giving it up, just to throw it away in one day? I am not talking about candy here, I am talking about sinful things, like cussing and disobeying God.

Date: 4/3/2002 9:37:00 AM  From Authorid: 52736    i know exactly what you're saying. i've been a Protestant my entire life, and i think that Lent is kind of a stupid holiday, not because of what it stands for, but because no one takes it seriously. Sadly, i realize a didn't either, when i used to participate in it. I think that i take the commandments and sin much more seriously when i'm not forced to give something up, when i do it by choice. very good point!! i know exactly how you feel! *melancholy_spirit13*  
Date: 4/4/2002 8:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 17525    I believe it is because most who attempt some sort of 'fasting', whether it be material or spiritual, do so out of 'requirement' and not out of a sincere desire to eliminate something negative from ones life. Fasting is a spiritual tool, not a form of dues to be paid to God. It is meant for spiritual growth, not reluctant deprivation. I think it's all in how one views fasting. Oh well. Just my opinion. Peace,
