- Shay Healy takes to the streets of Dublin to find out what young people know about Lent, what it means to them, and what if anything they are giving up?
Lent means different things to different people - a time of abstinence, religious devotion, spiritual cleansing, a time to get healthy, or nothing at all. On North Earl Street there are mixed views on the significance of Lent among young Dubliners - from giving up smoking, to abstaining from eating meat or simply following the flock.
One young woman asks,
Didn’t God do something for forty days?
A young man outside Clery’s says he is giving up cigarettes
For the sacrifice because God died willingly for us so we owe him something back.
Another young woman says Lent is about
Eating pancakes and getting your forehead all black.
One young man tells Shay that he is going to give up the drink.
To keep me Ma quiet.
Another young woman vows to give up men.
This report for ‘Evening Extra’ was broadcast on 4 March 1987. The reporter is Shay Healy. - Развлечения
Ah man, I knew your man at 1:23. He was called Ken Nolan. We grew up together in Kilbarrack. He got strung out on gear & he sadly died in about 1996. I went on my first "trip" with him. Got the Smiley Face tabs in Darndale that summer & the two of us went walking all along Clontarf for about 6 hours & then walked home. Thanks for this one.
Aw thanks for sharing 💖 It’s a funny old world that’s for sure. I for one don’t believe in coincidences.
RIP Ken 🙏
Aww Ken looked like he had such a happy persona. Thanks for putting a name and wonderful story to a face. RIP Ken.
Where did you's go on your first trip?
I don't know why these videos are suddenly popping up in my feed, but they're awesome!
Same!
LOVE IRELAND 🍀☘️

"What is rent? Did people pay others money to live in fancy buildings? Today everyone lives in holes dug in the ground, which is normal, I think."
I miss these days
Love the videos of lreland 🇮🇪☘️☘️☘️
Hard to believe this was 50 years ago already

You’d wanna go back to school to get your sums right
"Give up men." There's an Irish lass with sass for ya!!! 👍😇💚
The ashes come from the palms from the previous Palm Sunday and they are worn as a mark that we are sinners. Its like wearing the scarlet letter.
Soda bread, Irish potatoes!😅
2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.

I would love to return to this more simple time in Ireland , I was seven years old at the time , in the following year was the Dublin millennium and the boys in green would go on to qualify for the Euro's followed by world cup in Italy. Ireland was pulling it's self up by it's bootstrap's to take it's rightfull place on the world stage.
Are you sure they were simpler times? Maybe, because you were 7.
18% unemployment, good times!
@@donfalcon1495 you don't have to be swimming in money to have a happy healthy life.
@@paolagrando5079 no it was a simpler time and place because it wasn't full of the people that the rest of the world don't want Paola
@@sitluxetluxfuit4481 Who would be these people?
Back when Ireland was actually Catholic!
Yet the Celtic culdee church of Patrick was not Roman
There should be a secular Lent. It makes perfect sense as a ritual whether you believe in God or not. This year I gave up hang-gliding and eating snails.
I think it exists, growing up there were a lot of people not religious who would still give up something for Lent
he seen a dentist? @0:12
God bless Ireland. Lent it Catholic Religion you have Lent Fasting. You need go back to the 1980s. To get that Italy, Ireland has it along with Poland. Father Casey he Catholic priest.
Keep the Faith
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
Asking the original Israelites about their original religion there's a reason the Irish were genocided and our mother tongue ripped out,
Check out the book Irish wisdom preserved in Bible and pyramids by Conor Mac Dari..
A time when Irish only lived in Ireland 🇮🇪
A better time
It’s like a war zone in the city centre now ..
Wrong

I'm still wait for you to answer my question!
Oh how I long for the days of the renaissance, when everyone lived in their own f**king country.

So should Irish people be deported back to Ireland from their homes around the world?
I’m so glad those insular days are gone.
Pretty clueless about the State religion as set in the Constitution. Those interviewed in the 60s were not so badly informed.
Bleedin religion 🤣😂🤣😂
