Countries around the world take to the streets, squares, and community areas to celebrate one last hoorah.

		<description><![CDATA[For most of us, giving something up for Lent is tough.  Chocolate, sweets, or even Facebook are popular choices for the Lenten discipline. Some give up alcohol but one man is adding alcohol to Lent. Not only that, but he is only drinking beer for Lent! CNN&#8217;s Belief Blog recently reported that J. Wilson, a [...]]]></description>

A striking message, isn’t it? Many of us choose not to think too much about the forces of evil or how Satan plays a part in [...]]]></description>
