I would post this in Catholicism, but since I could be wrong, it is here. But I think I'm right.
OK, you know that a one year old is in his second year of life, right? And that last century was not the 19th but the 20th, right? So when Canon Law says that on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday adults are to fast "up to the beginning of their 60th year", do you see that this means through age 58? Because your 60th year is when you are 59 years old.
Does a 59-year-old have to fast?

A 59-year-old does not have to fast. Yes, the law is weird. I didn't write it
