lastchild:
well its good you said "your own fasting"

Just like I opened this thread saying "based on my own personal experience"

The effects of fasting cannot be said to be personal though. We are talking here about the human body for Pete's sake.

The human body does not control the human spirit, not does it control the mind. So to suggest that starving the body will some how give the spirit a boost or send the mind on a journey that is unheard of is ludicrous.

Even God himself stated in Isaiah 58 that all your fasting does I starve the body, and He would know since He built us.

Exmilitant:
I have never fasted in my fucking whole life and i'm perfectly okay financially, spiritually and phisically! Can you explain that?

Let me explain to you this way: life have three periods: morning, noon and night.
Some have their challenges and battles in the morning, some in the afternoon, some at night. Guess which one is worse?
