What is the purpose of waiting 1 hour after sunset to break fast?

^^Ah okay, one of my coworkers said she can't break fast until an hour after sunset "just to be sure" and I wasn't sure if that was a standard thing or what.

So God uses GMT? That's weird.

no, bdmazur is just saying what time sunset is; his time zone is GMT-7 (subtract 7 hours from GMT to get local time), which is consistent with living in Pacific Daylight time

^^no, he is giving a sunset time for a huge giant time zone. Its weird that God uses a totally arbitrary, man-made, discrete way of dividing sunset times. Weird that he uses GMT

Some more traditional folks will do that, but I'm pretty lenient. Sometimes I'll call it a full 24 hours (like the last thing I ate today was at 6:30, so I have no problem breaking at the same time tomorrow).

I doubt you really know much about my religion, so take your troll ass elsewhere.

The sunset time I gave is the official time for Santa Barbara, California, not for the entire time zone. I just clarified the time zone as opposed to telling you all 10pm and confusing everyone as to when the fast ends.

Feeling pretty good (and pretty drunk) now. Go 24 hours without eating then take a few shots, it's fun.
