I'm glad I'm not Orthodox, I think I'd die. I don't know if it's true, but it's rather silly. I mean, you're not supposed to have sex AND you're not supposed to masturbate? Does the Bible really address masturbation???

Eh... no. And I don't really believe it either, because what religion would want to kill off its followers?
Make them a little hungry and a little sorry, okay, but kill them just doesn't make any sense.

Gee, that's not in the DaVinci Code, are you sure that's true? (Insert sarcastic eye roll here)

that cannon is clearly outdated. in modern times you would have to amend that so that for every thousand times, you fast for 2 weeks.
