A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Not eating meat on some Fridays isn't fasting...

And that's not even something all Christians do, pretty sure it's just Catholics

Not eating meat on some Fridays are a Jewish thing that continued into Christianity; Catholics observe it more than other types of Christians, but they are not the only ones that observe it.

But that's still not fasting...

I did not refute that point, only who abstains from eating meat on Fridays.
