i usually try to avoid getting all religious on you, but this one's for the catholics and/or other papal order religions.
This past Friday was the first Friday in Lent. i meant to get to this last friday, but the OC was thursday and i couldn't take down the lesbian kiss video that quickly. Catholicism be damned I like lady-lip-locks.
Speaking of The OC lesbian Kiss, that's not the only controversial kissing going down in the county, you can check out the newest scenes from next week's episode at CannedJam.com
If you weren't currently aware, there is this silly little tradition/imposition that the catholic church recognizes that people over the age of 14 or so aren't allowed to eat meat on Fridays in Lent, lest they be cast directly into hell, do not pass go, do not collect $200.
 | Even PJP II is going to town on some turkey's leg on a Friday. He's weak from his illness, and he needs meat in his diet to build up his strength.
The pope could call a meeting and change the rules. I mean if he's gonna make exceptions for himself, he might as well start drawing up the paper work for a third vatican council.
Regardless my personal religious beliefs, not eating meat on Fridays in Lent is a stupid rule that I will have no part of.
So lets overturn this sucker like a tractortrailer full of vaseline and slide on down to the other side of reality. |

This is actually a compromise from the previous rule that stipulated that Catholics couldn't eat meat on any Friday ever. Apparently at the Second Vatican Council, a little meeting where they figure out what fucking century it currently is, they made the modifications. They felt that since times had changed and Catholics were no longer being fed to lions, that maybe the rules could be amended slightly.
The "reason" behind the whole meat-eating fiasco, is that Jesus died on a Friday, so hey let's show respect with sacrifice. But you don't get to choose your sacrifice, because what if you gave up your cocaine habit on Fridays in lent, while joe douchebag gave up swimming in his pool. well that's not fair, lent often falls in feb and march and joe lives in minnesota. we need standard sacrifice across the board...well except for pizza place owners, they must be god's chosen people, because all they get is a spike in sales. oh and vegetarians are cool with god too.
And speaking of religion, you really should check out the short film "The Other Guy" by Drewbacca. it's fantastic, as are a lot of the other films from the past six Spoiler Film Festivals.
