Alpo 4,755 Posted March 16 Over to the Smith & Wesson board there's a thread. "Yesterday did you have a steak for dinner?" Someone said no, no steak, as 3/14 was pi day. That part I understood. There's about 10 other responses all talking about steak. Then the thread was closed. I'm assuming this is religious somehow, and since the Smith Wesson board does not allow religious posts, that's why it was closed. Does it make sense to anyone else? Steak on March 14th?? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smuteye John SASS#24774 1,825 Posted March 16 Not yesterday. Had beef stew over a bed of rice. I usually do steak on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday in celebration of being Protestant. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cat Brules 1,477 Posted March 16 My guess is, it’s not religious at all. But then, I didn’t see the topic or the replies. Cat Brules Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably had something to do with Catholicism and Lent, but I'm not Catholic, and I don't do Lent, so it was just kinda 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cypress Sun 2,069 Posted March 16 Vampires don't like talk of stakes either. Lame humor I know. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sidekick 105 Posted March 16 It has nothing to do with religion. Google would be a big help to you. Its definitely not appropriate for this forum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpo 4,755 Posted March 16 You're right. Has nothing to do with religion. But hell, I had to have 4/20 explained to me. I guess I'm just too old-fashioned. Don't understand all the weird crap people come out with these days. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cat Brules 1,477 Posted March 16 I was wrong. I forgot. It’s been a long time. This time period (The “Lenten Season”) is one of religious observance by Catholics. Catholics “aren’t permitted” to eat meat and must fast on Fridays during “Lent”. In 2020, Lent is the 40-days (not including Sundays) beginning (in 2020) on Ash Wednesday, Feb-26 and ending on Saturday, Apr-8. Easter Sunday is Apr-9.

Catholics do not have a monopoly on Lent; it is commonly observed (in varying forms) among many Protestant, Orthodox and other Christian denominations.
