t. fish

pope made that shit up so the northern europeans would buy fish from them (mediterranean) instead of hunt deer or boar

>>8815006
T. Upset child that still lives at home

>>8815010
but we've got easily as much fish in the north sea

>>8815012
salted cod and herring maybe

It's a conscious act of abstinence from something that is important to you. Historically meat was considered a luxury while fish was poor people food so having to eat fish was an act of humbleness.
Or course it makes little sense in modern times, but you can just as well abstain from something else like smoking, drinking watching waifu animes or whatever. (Or don't; it's not as if I'm super catholic myself)

>>8815010
Yeah those Scandinavians sure don't have any fish.

>>8815006
Are you a jew?
Why did you guys do all that stuff to Jesus? That was pretty fucked up.

>>8815006
It's because religious folk are stupid gullible fucks who believe literally anything

>>8815027
Did you read the bible? Jesus was a smartass

>>8815031
Well yeah but you didn't have to whip him and shit before you nailed him to a piece of wood you assholes.

>>8815006
Because those are the rules. It's Catholicism, what do you fucking expect? 90% of the religion is "these are the rules, because somebody made them the rules hundreds of years ago. those people can trace their authority back to Peter, who was put in charge by Jesus, so those are the rules and we gotta follow them."

that is

the

ENTIRE

FUCKING

RELIGION

The flesh of fish does not resemble that of Jesus so it is not disrespectful.
That's what I read, at least.

>>8815128
Uh, the contrary was established at least as far back as Aristotle's taxonomy.

Funny that it's the other way round nowadays

>>8815983
Not funny to the fish since it's because they're on the verge of extinction due to unsustainable fishing.

>>8816088
Blame the Chinese, Americans and euros have mostly sane fishing policies

>>8816117
The japs and koreans are culpable as well.

>Be catholic

not a tough choice desu fampai

>>8815026
I was wondering what all this nonsense had to do with Jesus' resurrection, until I saw
>catholic

Man, what will you guys make up next?

>>8815026
>but you can just as well abstain from something else
This is exactly why it's not a general requirement that Catholics abstain anymore.
You're expected to abstain from something else during Lent instead.

>>8816425
POWERS OF BINDING AND LOOSING, BITCH

>>8815313
It's true.

>>8815006
Because eating fish is considered sacrificing the pleasure of consuming meat. Fish was plenty back then as they had the sea by them.

>>8815010
Don't make shit up; it just shows how retarded you are.

>>8816255
Feels like you're projecting a bit. Wanna talk about it, anon.
