I eat when I'm hungry and sometimes when I'm bored and I don't eat when I'm not hungry or too lazy to get food? That sounds like normalness to me!

All I've had today is a nectarine, a giant pickle, and a martini. Does that count as fasting?
Well under Muslim terms, the martini broke your fast, or this fast wouldn't count. Mainly because we're not supposed to intake alcohol in the first place.Originally Posted by Shlup

But the nectarine and the pickle are fine? I don't understand the will of your god at all.
Stop oppressing him, Shlup!
there was a picture here
My God and your God are the same. We just have different interpretations of his messengers.
But on note pleasurable for my peers, I have to endure my thirst/hunger for 4 and a half hours of Football training

How do you know she has the same God?
Belief, faith. I believe that there is one God, so in my eyes, my God is still everyone else's God. The people who don't believe in God just....don't believe that there is a God.

What if someone specifically tells you that they don't believe in your God, and you have no rational way of explaining that it really is the same God?
This is a nice thread about culture. Doesn't have to get all eoeo up in here
When I was growing up marman we fasted once a month and it was terrible. Fasting for children is not a good idea.

Man I know how hard football training is and I know what it's like to train when hungry but that's going to be super intense and I hope you're not dead after it
I'm sorry, but I think that depriving yourself of water for four hours while participating in fairly intense physical exercise is one of those "common sense" bad ideas. I'm sure you do it all the time or whatever, but when you used to hear about kids dying on XTC in the 90's on the late-nite news, it was because they were engaging in intense physical activity without bothering to hydrate themselves because the X was just keeping them distracted.
I sure hope that the circumstance doesn't have to arrive where an ambulance needs to come making a big scene on a football field, taking somebody away because they refused to drink water to prevent themselves from potential brain damage. That is actually very comical.
But for my own existential purposes I have to provide a generally optimistic pledge of assurance concerning the various turns your life (or lack thereof) could levitate or plummet/swerve/crash right at any minute, so like make sure you take care of yourself. But imagine that.
I've never met anyone who takes part in Ramadan, not even the Muslims I know do. I always thought it was closer to the end of the year. Huh.
I'm a glutton who eats at will, so I doubt I'd enjoy a religious ritual that made me fast repeatedly.
I like Kung-Fu.
It was you I was trying to oppress, but you wouldn't hold still long enough so now there's collateral damage.
I'm afraid that's unpossible.
During fasting, it's supposed to be a relaxing time. It's my choice to partake in football practice. And I'm a little used to the woozy feeling now.
But I forgot the exact reasons listed in the Qu'ran, but the reason we fast is to know our limits and necessities. To know what is actually needed to live and we respect those who can't afford to get those necessities.
