    Gawker knew exactly what the fuck they were doing when they made sure their 500 days of Kristin Cavallari series overlapped with LENT 2016.

    When do you consider Lent over?

    We were always told it ended after the evening mass on Holy Thursday (today).

    I've heard some consider it over on Saturday, and some don't consider it over until after Holy Week concludes on Sunday.

    Lent is over when the Hulkster gets his money.

    We considered Lent to be over on Saturday, because Friday would be the last Meat-Free day of the season. After that, it really didn't matter.

    so true. the point of lent is to not eat meat on fridays. Big man upstairs is laying in some tomb this week and you are busy reading gawker articles. Unbelievable.

    I gave up meat for the entirety of Lent, including fish.

    Do you guys eat fish on Fridays? I know some don't, but I know some who do and say "fish doesn't count as meat".

    Fish doesn't count.


    There are a few meats that do not count either; beaver is one. Alligator another



    But fish is a fish, not a meat.

    I always said the same thing!

    But over the years I've met so many people who don't agree.

    These are Catholics fasting rules, not to be confused with vegetarianism, pescatarianism or any other ianism.

    Wow, never heard of Gawker before sneaking into this thread. Guess I'll have to go take peak since I don't do the Lent thing.

    Lent ends the first note of holy Thursday mass.

    The Holy Triduum then begins.

    That's what I was told, as well, when I did the RCIA classes for my conversion to Catholicism. But over the years I've heard so many different things about when it "officially" ends

    You're point is a good one. A lot of people that go through rcia do know many of the "rules" and nuances better than cradle Catholics.

    Why do you think fish frys are so prevalent on Fridays. Fish is totally fine.

    I don't love fish so I only had it once, but I do go meatless on fridays.

    The following is from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fastin...atholic_Church



    Abstinence laws consider that meat comes only from animals such as chickens, cows, sheep or pigs --- all of which live on land. Birds are also considered meat. Abstinence does not include meat juices and liquid foods made from meat. Thus, such foods as chicken broth, consomme, soups cooked or flavored with meat, meat gravies or sauces, as well as seasonings or condiments made from animal fat are technically not forbidden. However, moral theologians have traditionally taught that we should abstain from all animal-derived products (except foods such as gelatin, butter, cheese and eggs, which do not have any meat taste). Fish are a different category of animal. Salt and freshwater species of fish, amphibians, reptiles, (cold-blooded animals) and shellfish are permitted.

    Because of this, some Catholic parishes in the United States sponsor a fish fry during Lent.[22] In predominantly Roman Catholic areas, restaurants may adjust their menus during Lent by adding seafood items to the menu in an attempt to appeal to Roman Catholics.[23]

    If I lived in a place that served alligator (Florida), I would just eat that every friday.

    Here's a stream if Jesus Christ Superstar for anyone that wants it. I kind of like a listen on good Friday.

    Has all off Andrew Lloyd Webber too for anyone looking for his soundtracks.

    Re: What are you giving up for lent?

    One of the things I noticed yesterday that I've never fully appreciated about the Catholic faith is that it's so easy to attend a service in another state. I was out of town picking up my daughter from her Spring Break trip yesterday in New Mexico and I attended a parish there for Easter since I was away from home. It was quite easy, and the Mass is the same no matter where you go. Some priests may sing more, some may incorporate Latin in certain places, but it's basically the same thing.

    When I was a Baptist years ago, if I wanted to attend another church in another state I would have people asking me to fill out visitors forms, giving us special attention ("Do we have any guests here today? Stand up *applause*), trying to show us where to sit for guest seating, etc. It was almost annoying to visit another church.

    I guess I never really noticed that before yesterday.
