Footprints?

...

Reduce Your Carbon Footprint For Lent.


No.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No. No, no, no. No. No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No. No, no. No. No. No. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. No. No, no, no, no. No. No. No, no, no, no, no.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!


Lent is a time to assess the state of our souls, and a time to assess our relationship with Jesus Christ. It is a time to pray and fast, and perhaps to make some amends or “give something up” as a small form of suffering and sacrifice. It is a forty-odd day period to prepare for celebrating the Resurrection of our Lord.

It must be God-centered, not Gaia-centered.

Say no to this “reduce your carbon footprint for Lent” nonsense. And it is non-sense.

Couldn't agree with you more...the Church would lose every teenager if they were to suggest they give up their cell phone! Always

I haven't heard it anywhere else, which is surprising. I would almost think Rush was playing a practical joke if I didn't find the link.
