Question: Do you eat meat on Good Friday!?
Thanks for answers,,Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Hi, Doc! I believe that Good Friday and Easter are flooded with pagan rituals!. So I, as a Christian, refuse to celebrate them!. Check out wikipedia--easter!.

That being said, I eat whatever I want every Friday, and the rest of the week, too!.

According to what I read and heard, the no meat on Good Friday rule/tradition was because Jesus fed the people with so many fish!. also it might be due to Jesus being crusified on Good Friday and the meat might have something to do with this!. Usually I do on Good Friday Nothing religious, but fish is good for you anyway!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
