Methinks, Ray's teachings have caused you guys to become far too righteousness for your own good:) Furthermore, go to the scripture: "And if your right hand ( the hand you use to slam dunk) is snaring you, strike it off and cast it from you, for it is  expedient for you that one of your members should perish and not your whole body pass away into Gehenna." Selah!!!! ::)

John, this is absolutely ridiculous! Fasting isn't required for the elderly or sick or very young in Catholicism. The whole idea of fasting for a Christian is the same as snapping a rubber-band  on your wrist, to bring your thoughts back to God. Besides it is good for a person to fast somewhat. This tradition is spreading, in fact, to other mainstream sects.
But the best thing about it is, FISH FRYS every Friday. Cheap and all you can eat great fish! Now there is where the fasting should begin because of all the grossly overweight Christians (Protestants come too) who so obviously overeat at these FRYS. By the way, the money goes toward the school.
My one daughter gives up her daily glass of wine during Lent. Now, when Easter comes around I don't know for sure if she is happy for being closer to God or getting to drink her wine again. I'll have to ask. It's my fault, I raised her that way. judy
