In light of this purpose of Lent, SOME Catholic and Orthodox posters will absent themselves from FreeRepublic completely during Lent's forty days.

Silence is not a weakness, but a strength.

 

There are battles, and there are wars. Christ lost the battle on Good Friday, but won the war for us on Easter Sunday.

 

Remember the silence of our Lord in the face of his accusers. Recall that those who welcomed Jesus to Jerusalem, waving palms and olive branches, were shouting “crucify him” only five days later. It is not easy to apply Christ’s command to: “Love your enemies. Do good to those who persecute you”.
