Lent bothered me for a couple years after I quite the RC business. I still appreciate what they're trying to do but my view is much more secular now. I see a people who will not actually change their day-to-day lives but will put on a show of making a public attempt. Changing the way your mind is oriented means some habits of thought must be recognized and somehow replaced. The religion of my youth was not up to that challenge.
