No reason to do so.

Eat and enjoy your God-given nourishment three times a day.

It's the intermittent fasting meme

I imagine there are a fair few folks in /rel/ who take it seriously.

Said folks also see themselves as 14th century monks, though.

Tfw want monasticism but also want wife and kids

Just don’t be a monastic without holy orders.

So many laymen who LARP as monastics, and it pisses me off.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with discipline in your daily life.

But only to a certain extent.

I want ascesis regardless
Not dumb enough to try hesychasm or anything though

There’s been a rather bizarre raid on a Legio Christi post about Chik-Fil-A.

There are sodomites both condemning and defending Chik-Fil-A.

It’s fun when they are infighting.

Interesting

Chick-Fil-A is the only acceptable form of ecumenism

I fast cause im a fatass and I want to get fit

I'd never tell a lean person to fast

You should never tell anybody to fast. It’s a personal penance/discipline.

So it is unchristian to suggest a person improve their self-discipline and clean up their temple to the Holy Spirit?

I'm lean but I'm gaining weight

I suggest fasting to those who struggle with self/impulse control.

Religious or otherwise.

A day or two on one meal and water helps people break the "I can't do it cycle", at the very least.

But I think fearing has a point, rarely does *telling* somebody to do something ever work. I mean unless it's your kids or your spouse or something and even then, that last one isn't guaranteed. 😏

"hey, you should fast if you are serious about your spiritual growth" =//= "fast or you'll never get to Heaven"

No kidding. Nobody likes unsolicited advice.

Wait are you telling me you don't go up to strangers and tell them to BEGOME?

I flash my hairy chest with a big ass cross on it like a true eastern european

My ni🅱️🅱️a

I assume you also shaved in the IC XC NI KA

I was just considering branding with a cross like one guy from the group did once, but its quite risky

If that doesnt heal proper, then you're in trouble

Ok that's a bit much

Even big ass tattoos might be problematic

But what if you already live in a semi permenant state of fasting?

Hmmmmm

It warrants a big fat "good for you"

hello fellow Christians

I see your conversation about intermittent fasting, I started doing it two weeks ago and getting results!

What can I do when I am serious rage? I am born and raised Prot so yeah. I need some sort of guidance.
