Some people say that when they fast you get a different frame of mind!.Like you think more clearly or look at something in a different light!.I don't get it either but I hope that helped!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
It's a way to bring attention to a cause, I guess, and by fasting, you're saying,"I'm willing to give up something, up to and including my life for this cause", since if you fast long enough, you'll die!. It's basically saying, "I do not want to be a part of this kind of world, whatever that world is!." It is meant to show that a situation is desperate and intolerable and by bringing attention to it, the person fasting is hoping there will be some people out there who will help resolve the problem!.
Any benefits could potentially be seen as twofold or threefold, since you could lose some extra weight which can be a very healthy thing to do, supposedly fasting is a powerful way of self purification (allowing your body to rid itself of impurities it otherwise wouldn't because of having to constantly digest food) and you could bring attention to and possibly solve a serious problem plaguing the world!.
Supposedly, to children not yet fully matured to adulthood, and to the elderly, fasting too long can actually be very harmful, so they have to be more careful, and should probably avoid extreme fasting!. Actually, there are examples of fasting that have revealed it to be a very effective method of social reform and change!. To the uninformed or uneducated onlooker, you are right, it does appear to be an extreme activity that could cause more harm than good!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

So what is a useful way of protesting!? Using Violence like Malcolm X did!.!.!.!.or going for a non-violent approach like Martin Luther King!?
