3. He's absolutely right ...
It clears your mind and makes you see the world in a whole new and spiritual light. Plus, it cleans your body of toxins.

For these and other reasons he should try it sometime.

5. *Any* activity which a person dedicates to God...
...changes their life. It's not the lack of food that makes the difference but the effort of will. That's what Opus Dei is about though I'm sure the very thought would make his head explode.

Man, all I can say is when he unbuttons that collar, STAND BACK.

:evilgrin:

ON EDIT: It reminds me of the old "Hans & Franz" joke on SNL about the "flab-alanche"...

7. I think he confused "fasting" with "feasting"...
....cause he looks like he lives at Old Country Buffet.

8. I fast every once in a while myself for purification reasons
physical and/or spiritual, so I'm very much in favor of the practice, but I do find it hard to believe Jerry does it very often.

12. It also makes your tummy
growl in church (from a former Mormon who abhored fast Sundays). Somehow it always diverted my thinking to KFC rather than Cheezus, mmmmmm cheese.

15. I loooove cheese. One of my favorite foods.
Melted mozzarella with jalapeno peppers mixed in. Yum. Sharp cheddar cheese, sliced off the big chunk, and eaten as is. Mmmmmm.

Absolutely true. You do it long enough, and you'll be dead.

28. You COMPLETELY misunderstood
in certain parts of the South, fasting refers to when you're really in a rush and you go "fasting" through the buffet at the Ryan's
