Feast and Fast… the rhythm of the Church Year… this is something that’s instinctual to all Christians, no matter how much or how little one attends services. It’s something absolutely foreign to the Sectarian… their “space” is sterile and lifeless… with no joy or no meditation… just an unrelieved joylessness. Whether one likes it or not, Rodrigo Borgia was more of a Christian than Girolamo Savonarola was. That is to say, one really shouldn’t be a Borgia, but if the choice is between being a Borgia or being a Savonarola, the choice is clear. A Bonfire of the Vanities isn’t pleasing to God… never forget that.
This is how we celebrate before going into the Lent. Now, we’re on that journey… to every thing, there is a season.
