Yeah, Lent ;-) Living among the proto-Khazars as I do, Christianity is just
another religion.

On a more serious note, though, does anybody know when the later, strict
observances of Lent came into being? I mean, the first Easter didn't happen,
and suddenly all the followers of Christ decided that they couldn't eat
meat/animal products in respect for J's death- obviously the observances
developed ovewr time. Anybody have a clue about that?

 If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably not a
cat.

Never a horse that cain't be rode,
And never a rider who cain't be throwed....
