Some of us evangelical Christians are not celebrating Lent, believing that it is not biblical. In fact, there is evidence that “Lent” is derived from the Mystery Religions of Babylon.

Yeah, the followers of Christ were wandering around in darkness for 1,700 years until your sect came along to set everything right.

Got it.

Ahem, you mean for 1970 years, 11 months and 3 days... (that's when Joe Bloggs got the revelation that on Easter we need to eat eggs sunny side up, not sunny side down)....
