February 27, 200719 yr If the person is Catholic, I'm quite certain they know the purpose of fasting, as well as the meaning of Lent. Those of us who've attended Catholic schools are well-educated in our schools, and those of us who were born into Catholic families most often began observing Lent and giving up something important to us for Lent, as toddlers. Are you asking what the purpose of Lent is? Or just if we know what it is?
