Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by eldee(m): 1:09am On Feb 17, 2010 |
Erm . . . you know the whole story, blackmail and patronising skills all at once. 'Baybee, do you think our whole relationship is based on intimacy??' . . . 'Come on b, you know I value what we share' Result is . . .'why don't we go celibate for lent' and you've got the grin on like it's your birthday in Vegas. Would you go celibate for a whole 40 days?? |

If Jesus can do it, so can you. |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 1:28am On Feb 17, 2010 |

Ebonyeyes: Hehehe . . . nah, Jesus didn't have a sexy chic living in his house stillwater:It's Christian . . . nice try |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 1:45am On Feb 17, 2010 |
What? Jesus had women around him. If he can do it, you can. If you have to move the gorgeous trick out then do it, its just 40 damn days for crissakes |

eldee: Oooh it's a Christian thing. So what would going celibate for lent do when you've been doing the do all along? |

I probably can. . . but i may then focus too much on the wrong hunger, so much so that my Lent would then look like ordinary life. |

[size=13pt]What would Jesus do ??[/size] |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by MissyB1(m): 9:18am On Feb 17, 2010 |
40 Minutes, probably. |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 9:57am On Feb 17, 2010 |
How long is lent? When is it set to start and finish? Answers to the above questions would be appreciated as I need to plan ahead. |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by chidyke77(m): 10:47am On Feb 17, 2010 |
It is very achievable. |

OMO IBO: It starts today, which is Ash Wednesday, and ends 40 days from today which will be Good Friday and then Easter Sunday! |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 8:27pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
@ Omo Ibo What are you planning ahead for |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 8:46pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
stillwater: The Lenten season is the Church’s (Catholic) way of preparing for Easter. It takes after the example of JC who fasted for 40 days in the desert and its emphasis is on prayer, fasting and abstinence. The church sees it as a way to master the evil one and grow to perfection. Each season comes with a time of sober reflection and chastisement for our sins. It’ll definitely be ‘uncatholic’ to be having intimacy this period. Infact even married couples are often advised to stay away from intimacy as much as possible during this time. Everything that brings joy to the flesh is frowned upon (which is why we they don’t’ even say ‘Alleluia’ during lent). It’s not so much about the sin involved as it is about the pleasure derived from it. So yes, every good catholic who is involved in pre-marital intimacy should at least try to abstain from it during this time . . . |

who knows i just might |

Ujujoan: I'm letting go of my Ipod, Itunes and any other individually-controlled source of music. The joy I derive from music is detrimental to my spiritual growth Missy B: Come on . . . are you that freaky?? |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 9:17pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
eldee: Yea, that's not a bad idea. |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by ravenzord(m): 9:49pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
Did Jesus observe Lent? |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by eldee(m): 9:53pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
ravenzord: Yep . . . he fasted for forty days and forty nights. |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Igwe9(m): 10:08pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
by God's grace, i will |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by ravenzord(m): 10:15pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
eldee: And did he call it lent? |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by eldee(m): 10:19pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
ravenzord: Lent is just the Latin word for fortieth day. |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by ravenzord(m): 10:21pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
Was Jesus Latin? And did his disciples fast with him? |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by eldee(m): 10:28pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
ravenzord: Dude . . . I'm not going to go into an argument about what language Jesus spoke or whether or not we should try to emulate Jesus in his ways. This is the romance section. It's simple, if you were to observe lent, would you give up sex for it?? L'anglais Monsieur, Anglais!!! |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by ravenzord(m): 10:29pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
I'm not catholic |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by eldee(m): 10:31pm On Feb 17, 2010 |
ravenzord: Hehehe . . .you're a case |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Vuitton(m): 8:58am On Feb 18, 2010 |
Hope folks did not eat meat yesterday (Ash Wednesday) And is eating meat on Fridays out of the order of lent |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by Nobody: 11:44pm On Feb 19, 2010 |
^^^ No! It's only on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday that you are to abstain from eating meat. Every other day is at your own discretion! |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by mamagee3(f): 12:39am On Feb 20, 2010 |
Okay, what has this got to do with the ROMANCE BOARD SECTION? |
Re: Would You Go Celibate For Lent? by eldee(m): 1:04am On Feb 20, 2010 |
mama-gee: Well . . . I don't know what you're driving at but I think when one half of a couple tries to go celibate, it sounds like sumn for the Romance Section. If you can't relate with that, there's about a thousand other topics to choose from. |
