Then I learned that you don't have to fast on Sundays during Lent so I'd gorge on ice cream on Sundays.

That seemed stupid, so I just gave up fasting altogether.

Ha? In which church is this?

Roman Catholic -- looks like it still applies -- just found this from the US Conference of Catholic Bishops

Q. Why do we say that there are forty days of Lent? When you count all the days from Ash Wednesday through Holy Saturday, there are 46.

A. It might be more accurate to say that there is the "forty day fast within Lent." Historically, Lent has varied from a week to three weeks to the present configuration of 46 days. The forty day fast, however, has been more stable. The Sundays of Lent are certainly part of the Time of Lent, but they are not prescribed days of fast and abstinence.

You must be the poster who uses "we" as if you're communicating offline people on the thread and that they agree with you.

If people get sick from interacting with the Pope, it was God's will.
