Gsmiles26:
Friday is always a good day cos its the beginning of the weekend but this 3/4/15 is even special because its the day we remember the ultimate sacrifice dat brought man back to God after the fall of adam and eve.

But eating of meat has become a bone of contention amongst many, some say its abominable because they see it as eating the flesh of Jesus while others think otherwise. What is your view on this?

Have your say!

Strictly for christians!!

first of, it's a catholic doctrine, it's neither superstitious nor biblical, it's considered a way of showing piety to God who shed His blood. Contrary to many beliefs even of some catholics that meat isn't eaten bcoz they ll be eating the flesh of christ Good friday is a day of abstinence from anything pleasurable in reverence to christ's agony. And since eating sth bloody must have cost its life it's considered sacrilegious to do so as christ's death signifies salvation. Peace!

Everyone got their beliefs and values. We "Catholics" believe that eating meat on a good friday, is like eating the flesh of christ, and inflicting more pain to him, so it's neither of that!!

" And except you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you".

Pls the aim of this topic is just to have our respective opinions on eating meats on dis day based on your beliefs and not to disregard any denomination,let's be modest in our comment not mentioning the name of any church pls,as christians let's not wash our dirty linen outside so dat haters will have no room to blaspheme our faith.thanks for understanding

Being a catholic does noy guarantee you heaven being a Christain does. The reason being Christ sat at the right of God pleading for us all..

Yes well said ,,.,,.

And not minding your business in your own church thereby neglecting some of the Instructions and Commands of Christ (Hoc Facite in meam commemorationem) can also prevent you from even seeing that Heaven.

Christians and their silly doctrines. No wonder Jesus ask us to watchout for people who preach the traditions of men as doctrines of God. When Jesus broke the bread at the last supper what did He say? He said, 'This is my body' and gave it out for them to eat. In other words He seems to be saying take my body and eat it. Now some people were saying we should not eat meat because it is like eating Jesus body. What a contrast.

this is not what the catholic church teaches oh! Please do not misinform people.

Alexk2:
To me, it is not just superstitious but may be ungodly to make that a doctrine...where can we find that in the bible?
that is purely the doctrine of men.

If you start looking for everything you practice as a Christian in the bible, you go old pass Metusella. We might firstly look for where in the bible iPad was used to preach, or rabbis fry their hair or where it says you should close your eyes to pray.
Any practice that is not contrary to the will of God should be encouraged. Practices that helps to endear people to God be encouraged.
Keep looking for the intestine of ant, you will miss the mark.

1000likes I was a catholic and dis is d reason from abstaining from meat on a good friday

We believe that meat is aform of enjoyment so is a way to punish our flesh and dwell on d crucifixion of Christ

Wherever u worship always obey and follow d doctrine once is not a sin even d bible said "obey the laws of your land" and "believe the prophets of God so u can prosper" if you are not comfortable with any doctrine guiding ur church d best thing is to leave for your own good

SIMPLE AND SHOT.

Christmas, easter, good Friday, assumption bla bla bla! Are not even in the bible! I believe there's a God but all these holy books are scams! The old testament and the new testament even contradicts! So confusing. Why would I believe a book written by a human being like myself? Isn't that stupi.d?

Some churches don't wear earings.some wear trousers,some abstain from meat. Most of these may not be biblical but contains in their own law.in cath it is called canon law.either u obey or u don't .but its a belief system for the church and as long as I knw,religion is the belief in the existence of the supernatural.
The Catholic Church historically observes the discipline of fasting or abstinence at various times each year. For Catholics, fasting is the reduction of one's intake of food, while abstinence refers to refraining from meat (or another type of food). The Catholic Church teaches that all people are obliged by God to perform some penance for their sins, and that these acts of penance are both personal and corporeal. The purpose of fasting is spiritual focus, self-discipline, imitation of Christ, and performing penance.

Contemporary Vatican legislation, which is followed by Catholics of the Latin Rite (who comprise most Catholics) is rooted in the 1966 Apostolic Constitution of Pope Paul VI, Paenitemini, and codified in the 1983 Code of Canon Law (in Canons 1249–1253). According to Paenitemini and the 1983 Code of Canon Law, on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, both abstinence and fasting are required of Catholics who are not exempted for various reasons. All Fridays of the year are days of penance. All persons who are fourteen years old and older are bound by the law of abstinence on all Fridays that are not Solemnities. Nevertheless, both Paenitemini and the 1983 Code of Canon Law permitted the Episcopal Conferences to propose adjustments of the laws on fasting and abstinence for their home territories, and most have done so. For example, in some countries, the Bishops' Conferences have obtained from Rome the substitution of pious or charitable acts for abstinence from meat on all Fridays of the year (including Fridays of Lent) except Good Friday. Others continue to abstain from eating meat on Lenten Fridays, but not on Fridays outside of Lent. Still others voluntarily abstain from meat on Fridays throughout the year.

Members of the Eastern Catholic Churches are obliged to follow the discipline of their own particular church. While some Eastern Catholics try to follow the stricter rules of their Orthodox counterparts, the actual canonical obligations of Eastern Catholics to fast and abstain are usually much more lenient than those of the Orthodox. It is presumed that the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter (the newly created jurisdiction of the Church for former Anglicans) will assume the discipline of Friday abstinence as conceived in the Book of Common Prayer. Early Prayer Books set out rules that were in-line with the Sarum Rite of the time, where most days prior to Solemnities and Feasts were delegated as "days of abstinence" along with the Rogation Days. The eating of fish on these days is generally ruled out within the English Patrimony of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter.

The Catholic practice of abstaining from meat on Fridays popularized the Friday
