Qaz 11:40, 27 September 2005 (UTC) Reply Guess what! You get to choose your own answer. Kieff | Talk 11:36, 27 September 2005 (UTC) Reply It depends on what the meaning of 'is' is. Why you think there should be one? And in this scenario, since there is no answer to "why?", we could pretty much just focus on finding out how. I want this question resolved before I expend any more energy on my high school education.Ĥ2? :) On a personal opinion, there's no meaning. I looked at the Wikipedia article, but it offered no definitive answers. reproduce AND HAVE FUN!! That is if your fortunate enough to live in a free country I thought it was obvious enough! But maybe not. this page is helpful - 00:04, 27 September 2005 (UTC) In place of abstinence or fasting it can substitute, in whole or in part, other forms of penance, especially works of charity and exercises of piety.” The effect of this was that the bishops of a country could decide what was required on Friday, and so the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops did.saying that prayer and penance could be substituted for abstention from meat on Fridays (of course, the requirement for a substitute act of piety is often neglected in the rush for the roast beef). The operative Canon Law was Canon 1253: "The Episcopal Conference can determine more particular ways in which fasting and abstinence are to be observed. The presently operative document is Pope Paul VI's Paenitemini (the Apostolic Constitution on Penance), published February 17, 1966. And the requirement certainly predated the Hanseatic League. There was never any requirement to eat fish - that's just urban legend stuff - really more anti-Catholicism than history. , but the tradition of abstaining from meat predates this (at least Tertullian).

And I think they still do that during Lent. Well obviously (since everyone remembers this, right?) Catholics were forbidden to eat meat on Fridays until some time in the 1960s, and ate fish instead. Thanks gang Dennis Nigrelli GOOD LUCK on this one:) My question to you is have their been any Papal or Church Bulls or decrees or treaties specifically made with the Hanseatic Trade League concerning fish trade and have their been any decrees by the Church requiring Christians to eat fish on Fast days? I have been trying to find an answer to this question for years and have only found one reference to Papal decree That christians should eat fish on Fridays and it had no specifific details. We all know that fish are definetley part of the christian faith, ever since the loaves and fishes on the mount and Peters Gig as a Fisherman. Fish was one of the main trading products of the league. In this course the professor told us that the Hanseatic trade league had persuaded( Bribed) one of the Popes to decree that on fast days meat was not allowed to be eaten and that fish should be put in its place.
