I’ll try to stop rubbing that dirt off people’s foreheads.

I’m showing mercy on American shipping and giving up my career as a U-boat captain for Lent.

I lent my brother-in-law $25.00.
I gave up $25.00.

Three years ago I gave up Christ for Lent, never went back.

God I’m good!

Interestingly enough, I actually did finally let go of religion around lent and when a friend asked me what I was giving up I said, “Jesus”.

Now, I would probably say that I gave up fantasy, wishful thinking, false hope, easy answers, and certainty…

I “lent” a friend money during Lent once. I’m giving up my patience for his repayment schedule…

I am finally giving up my quest for canonization. Try as I may, I just cannot pull off that third and final miracle.
