Is Fishing a Religion

[shayned]

If you made it later in the week, the 4th day becomes Thawsday, the day bait is taken from the freezer in preperation for a day of worship. The 5th day becomes Fryday as this is what you do to finish off your day of worship and if you've got any catholic friends it still fits in pretty well with them.

You beauty, got a bible and a day of worship (subject to weather conditions, of course), the paternoster prayer, all we need now is a titular head, some patron saints, tax free status and I believe
COD will be very pleased.

Religion, as recorded in history, and currently being supported in Lebanaon, Iraq, Afganistan ECT is an excuse to wage WAR against others.

Fishing can not and should not be linked to religion and all the crap it has given and is still giving the world and its people

Peter, Andrew, James and John, all top pro fishos, spent all night fishing for ZILCH.
Jesus went with them on a free charter the next day, before they had any sleep and suggested they put down their nets....the result BAG LIMITS ALL ROUND.
These days St. Lowrance and St. Garmin have taken a lot of the guess work out of it.

Definately a religion...RELIGAE = TO BIND. If kept in moderation can be very spiritual as well though.

Cheers,
Steve.

"I believe in Cod"; gotta like that one.

I think you all miss the point here but. As a religion, the boat would be neccissay to our devotion. Tax exemption and a few other perks, and we could all be leasing the lastest boats each year for bugger all...

If we made fishing a religion you would have all the tree huggers claiming that the fish are being persecuted by a religious order.
We could always start up the New Crusades and round up the whinging majority of imbecilic eco-nazis and feed 'em to the lions

When getting out my fishing rods and embarking on a boating adventure. I pray to the sea gods all of them. Posidon, Neptune, Hughy for a safe trip and a high yield.
I look at being on the water as a spiritual thing. Does that mean I see it as a religion? Well I dont know.
