Your humanistic / government indoctrination is clouding your ever dimming point of view.


Your belief that since everyone sins at some point nothing is actually sinful is of Satan.

The vast majority of people who are overweight are so simply because they don't control the amount of food they eat. They can create all the rationalizations they want: lack of exercise, hormonal issues, metabolism, etc. The bottom line is that they overeat. They are gluttons.

What are you talking about? I kept telling you that if you had something to say, then plainly state it. You refused and last I checked, you still hadn't stated it.

You hardly apply this attitude to yourself.
Watch!

Could you [b] plainly explain how many verses in John chapter one are authentic teaching of Jesus an ...[text shortened]... many are wrapped around mythology added latter ?

That's only 51 verses to deal with.[/b]

Yet another example of how you are oblivious to context.

I think that you are banking on staling behind technicalities to postpone dealing with the issue.

If you have no way to demonstrate how you separate wrapped around myth from authentic teachings of Jesus then you're asking everyone just to take your word for it, that you know what is authentic and what is not in the NT.

I don't just take your word for it.

The fact that you have poor reading comprehension skills is not just a "technicality". It makes it impossible for you to fully understand what the written word is conveying.

Contoling the amount of food you eat in a world of machines is mot the same as gluttony.

The closest thing to gluttony that I see are Thanksgiving. Christmas and Easter dinner.

Other than that, I would say people are over weight due to lack of exercise and poor food choices, not food volume.

No. I understand the Bible better than you.
And I can tell when someone wants to adopt it to add dignity to their God unbelieving, God rejecting philosophical worldview.

No ThinkOfOne, your twistings of Scripture can't hide behind "Improve your reading skills!"

If they are lacking exercise or make poor food choices, then they need to cut down on the amount of food that they consume. But they don't control the amount of food they eat. The bottom line is that they overeat. They are gluttons.

Oh I get it, your plea on judgment day will be that you are "big-boned", right?

Gluttony could be as bad as or worse than, homosexuality; Eledar could be more sinful than a raving poofter. [sic]

Now you give your society's values.

I thought the discussion was gluttony, which means eating and eating and eating every day as a lifestyle choice.

Perhaps you could give quotes from New Testament about the evils of gluttony and how it is defined.

Their lifestyle choice is to overeat. They eat more than they need and that excess is stored as fat. They are gluttons.

What "society's values" are you referring to? I have no idea what this is supposed to mean.

What's intrinsically "bad" about homosexuality?

It is by definition sexual immorality.

According to Jesus marriage is a union of a man and a woman. Any sex outside such a union is sinful.


There is your answer. Glad to have been of service.

Sure, Deut 21:20 equates gluttony with drunkenness. And we all know about how God feels about us being inebriated, right? So your overeating is as bad as drunkenness which is as bad as you desiring one of the local bad boys holding you down...

I'm just saying dude. You need to shape up!
