Simple Abstinence


Byzantine

Recommended Posts

If you pick the pepperoni off a piece of pizza, is said piece of pizza then kosher for simple abstinence? And what about meat sauce? The guys I work with are ordering pizza tomorrow and I'm required to do simple abstinence.

Can't you get like, half plain? Or eggplant parm?

If not, I'd say yeah, pick your pepperoni off. This stuff is all about intention. You intend to abstain, and are doing the best you can in the situation you're given.

Is this a Byzantine discipline due to the upcoming feast of the Assumption (or whatever Eastern Catholics call it)? is it possible to brown-bag something meatless?

ask them for half pepperoni and half peppers and onions!! om nom nom!!!

but I think if you take the pepperoni off that is pretty good, I would avoid meat sauce though!
