Business during Ramadan.

Catholics can't eat meat on Good Friday. AFAIK you can still buy meat on that day. What? Shops aren't open? Ah, fair enough, 1 day off won't put a butcher out of business.

However, then you get some religions that fast for a long time. Like Ramadan. 1 month no food isn't it?

If there's no food except for the basics, that sucks arse. That's why I don't like any religions (more specifically, interpretations of religions).

I don't think you should show your faith by depriving yourself. You should show your faith by being appreciative of the life you've been provided and/or made.

Anyways, on to the question:

Do many businesses in deeply religious precints/countries suffer a great deal during seasons of fasting?

Religious fasting, it's not just food, it's "gluttony" in general yeah??

Serious question BTW not taking the piss.
