only those who want to fast will do it, egin. it's voluntary & that's among the best things about being a christian, catholic or orthodox or any other.

& Luc, what's wrong? are u ok? i'm about to get sick myself (flu). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> please let us know if it's something simple & harmless (so long as the hospital treats u like a 1st class guest) or otherwise. hope u'll get better soon. please take care. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
