Lent's pagan origin



". . . The forty days abstinence of Lent was directly borrowed from the worshippers of the Babylonian goddess. Such a Lent of forty days, 'in the spring of the year', is still observed by the Yezidis or PAGAN DEVIL-WORSHIPPERS OF KOORDISTAN, who have inherited it from their early masters, the Babylonians. . ."

(THE TWO BABYLONS or THE PAPAL WORSHIP. By the Rev. Alexander Hislop. Page 105)

MY REFUTATIONS:

1 Peter 4:2 As a result, he does not live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God.  

1 Peter 4:3 For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry. (NIV)
