Just because it\'s not noted, doesn\'t mean that they\'re there.

Just want to get a sense and see I\'m the only one still following tradition:

- Is anyone getting ashes today
- Is anyone fasting today
- Is anyone abstaining from eating meat today

No.

I was born and baptized as an Orthodox Christian.

I apologize. What I meant to say is does anyone follow the religious law surrounding fasting and abstinence for Ash Wednesday and Good Friday; also abstaining from eating meat on Fridays during lent. I do and I wanted to know if I was alone in this practice...

I think you may be good dave... I think that if you believe in your heart that the burnt cornmeal is ashes, by dogmatic law, they will in fact be seen as ashes...

I guess I\'m alone on this one...

I was raised catholic and I always found this funny. I honor Jesus dying from crucifixtion I\'m not going to eat meat on Friday. That\'s like saying in honor of the veterans who lost a limb in service of our country I will trim my fingernails.

Appears to be and there is nothing wrong with that. Too each their own faith.
