Re: Good Friday
Catholics are not the only Christians to observe days of fasting and abstinence . The Eastern Orthodox Christians and Anglican Christians , according to the Book of Common Prayer , have their days for fasting and abstaining from certain foods . It follows on from Jesus' teaching on fasting .
I think you will find that all the main world religions practise fasting in some form or other e.g. Ramadan for Muslims , and certainly in Buddhism .
