What kind of pussy Catholics are we raising nowadays. Lent meant 6 weeks of sacrifice when I was practicing. No Sundays off for good behavior.

I think its always been this way its just not been that well known of a practice

The disciples of John approached Jesus and said,
“Why do we and the Pharisees fast much,
but your disciples do not fast?”
Jesus answered them, “Can the wedding guests mourn
as long as the bridegroom is with them?
The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them,
and then they will fast.”

the Bridegrom is considered as the mass so sundays arn't counted in the 40 days of lent and you do not have to fast on these days.

But pointless to get into this on this board lets stick to baseball
