Why Don't Catholics Eat Meat On Fridays

Why don't Catholics eat meat on Fridays During Lent? Great Question! This goes back to the 1st century when Catholics honored Jesus death on the cross. That day is now referenced as Good Friday. Traditionally, for hundreds of years Catholics were required to abstain from eating meat on all Fridays throughout the year and during Lent to also fast on weekdays as well. Vatican 2 changed this tradition to only not eating meat on Fridays during Lent. That's the tradition. Now let's answer the question Why? Jesus "The Lamb Of God" Sacrificed his flesh for all humankind so the flesh of all warm blooded animals was not consumed on Fridays. We hope this answers your question!
