As I understand it, it is giving up something of which you are very fond for a period of time. I would like to suggest to devout Christians that they give up their belief in god for lent, including church, the bible, prayer, etc. Try free-thinking, reason, logic, and scientific discovery on for size for a month and see if you are able to put aside your dogmas, if for only a short period.
Lent is predominantly a Catholic practice, it definitely is only practiced by denominational Churches.
