The Thinker
What would Christ give up for Lent?

- He would give up Creme Eggs, and give His ration to me!
(yum)
- Faith in the government.
- Nothing — He’d never acquire anything He
didn’t really want, even us …
- He would give up walking across the Sea of Galilee and
use the ferry like everybody else.
- I reckon He’d give up food entirely and subject
himself to the baking heat of the desert — oh
that’s right, He already did.
- I don’t think He’d give up anything as He
might think it was a worn-out tradition which people follow
for the sake of it.
- Visiting Alcuin, Derwent, Langwith, Goodricke or
Wentworth, since none of these colleges are God’s own.
He doesn’t bother visiting the poncy houses anyway,
since they’re miles away.
- Biting people’s gumz
- Anything other than choccy or fags, since He’s the
shepherd, not the sheep.
- His “Cannon & Ball” videos and
memorabilia.
- Christians
- He would give up ordering three glasses of water and
‘zapping’ them into wine when it came to His
round at the pub.
- Er, well as Lent finishes on Easter Day, you could say
that He gave up life during Lent (i.e. on Good Friday) for a
few days before resuming living again on Sunday.
- Himself. Or His (second) dad.
