Why doesn't any TD board talk more about Mardi Gras?

Mardi Gras is a huge part of Louisiana culture. I know it's isolated to the New Orleans area, but it seems strange to me that very few people here have stories to tell or things to say about it.
I only spent my childhood in New Orleans, but I have plenty of fond memories of going to parades.
Do y'all enjoy it?

It never made sense to me. It's supposed to be catholic based yet they have wild parties and worship false Roman and mythical godss in the parades...God teaches temperance and moderation yet Mardi Gras seems to promote drunken debouchary and sexual immorality. It just never made sense to me.

Your version of Jesus sounds lame as hell.
At least Catholic Jesus knows how to party and not have a stick up his arse.

You think Jesus is cool with worshipping other false gods like Bacchus and Toth and enymion?
Posted on 2/7/16 at 1:15 pm to Tiger Ryno
I don't think people worship Bacchus and Toth by going to a parade.

Catholics don't call it "Mardi Gras", they call it Good Friday. It's two totally different holidays and it shows a complete lack of understanding when people confuse the two.

Aren't they saying "hail baccus" and "hail toth"? If that isn't worship I don't know what is.

Dude knows we're all gonna be in Mass on Ash Wednesday. He's cool with a weekend of partying and having fun instead of being dour faced and doom and gloom.
