I ate a chicken wing accidentaly on Good Friday!!?

Question

It was at 2 AM and I had no idea it was Good Friday until earlier today! What should I do!?!?

By the way, this seriously happened! No joke!
For those of you that don't know, Good Friday is the day that Jesus died. (Reserected on Easter). Christians, and people with Christian-related religions cannot eat any kind of meat today. But, we can have milk, eggs, fish, etc. I'm Catholic, so I participate in this holiday.

Answer 1

I'm a Christian (baptist, specifically). In truth, I've never understood the connection between consumption of meat and Good Friday. One of these days, I'll take some time to research this for my own curiosity. The fundamental baptist teaching, however, makes no such restriction. After all, Jesus himself said...

Matthew 15:11 - "Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man."

Even so, if it is a tradition that you hold to be important, then I think you just need to offer it up to God in prayer. God knows human nature pretty well, and He expects that we'll make mistakes. If you are sincere in your regret, He promises to forgive. Isn't God great!

Answer 2

Don't worry about it. The no meat on Friday thing is based on an old pagan custom. You're allowed to eat meat any time you like, as much as you want.

In fact the Bible calls the forbidding of meat "a doctrine of devils."

Answer 3

do not order wings on a first date. decrease back in the day, I had had a wide crush on a guy I worked with. i wanted him authentic undesirable. there turned right into a chicken wing particular one nighttime and he became ingesting beer and sucking chicken wings all nighttime. He ordered 50 of them (i comprehend, i became the bartender). i became so grew to grow to be off by technique of it, with those sticky fingers and bbq sauce throughout his face. Gross. I in no way looked at him a similar way back after that. Plus, chicken wings are little chickies. There so lovable, why do we rip off their wings if you must deep fry them, douse them with sauce and chomp away?? Order some thing else...

Answer 4

Where does it say that you cant eat a chicken wing on Good Friday. Where are you getting these traditions? Is it in the bible?

Answer 5

I’m Catholic and I have to follow my family's tradition to not eat meats on every Friday. I wish I can stay away from that tradition but I have to respect my parents first. *sigh*

Answer 6

Hmm, relax about it, time will not reverse, you know, and since it was not like you did this "sin" on purpose... Just, really, I am sure it will not be an issue in the long run.... Besides, I thought you christians were forgiven already or something....

Answer 7

There is nothing in the Bible about this tradition. As a tradition,t has no meaning with God.
(Matthew 15:3) In reply he said to them: “Why is it YOU also overstep the commandment of God because of YOUR tradition?

(Matthew 15:6) he must not honor his father at all.’ And so YOU have made the word of God invalid because of YOUR tradition.

Answer 8

If the bars were still open from the previous day, you're good. Was it just before or just after 2:00 AM?

Answer 9

If you're Catholic, you are required to follow church law re fast and abstinence. However if you were not aware it was Good Friday, you did no wrong. Forget about it.

Answer 10

I'm glad you clarified your question. For a second there I was wondering, "How does somebody accidentally eat a chicken wing? It doesn't look at all like a tuna steak."
