Fasting for Spiritual reasons? No, not at all.

I spent a few months not eating on Wednesdays out of curiousity, to see how hard it would be and how it would feel. And way back in high school I did the 30 hour famine fund raising thingy.

I simply want to know what it feels like to be truly hungry. I think it will make it easier to empathize with people who live in near or in actual starvation, and to understand precicely how lucky I am to be living at this level of wealth in such a safe society.
