Do you have to be religious or a believer to take back a little during Lent. I am not a believer but for years now I stop drinking during Lent, keeping in mind that there are 7 Sundays to suspend my Lent.

This year i stop gobbling crisps while watching golf on TV

Why would you want to observe Lent at all unless you are religeous? You can give up whatever you want whenever you want but it doesn't have to be at Lent!

Granted but it's a good motive

Not if you're an atheist, it isn't.

Are you playing Devils advocate?

I don't see myself as an atheist or agnostic but something closer to antagonistic

Let's imagine me and the 10 or so other athiests in this thread meet at my place. We decide to have open minds and go to church to try it out.

We walk down the road past the gym, pub, snooker hall, golf course and restaurants. We are not distracted by their pleasures and arrive at the church. We then sit on uncomfortable wooden seats and listen to some loon in a dog collar waffle on for an hour or so. It's also cold and drafty. Then (get this, right), a guy comes round and asks us all for money.

When the service is over, those of us still living shake off the pins and needles in our legs and arch our aching backs to be told to come back every Sunday instead of lying in bed drinking coffee and reading the Sunday Times.

This Lent I shall continue to give up religion.
