That's sloth behaviour, which is another sin

The laws of thermodynamics apply to everyone, as does mass energy equivalence. It's simply energy in vs. energy out: being fat means either too much energy in, too little energy out, or both


So you don't think hoarding your time away from god, family and community is greedy?

I don't like you.


I know a good verbal slam can hurt, but I didn't realize it hurt that bad.

you never have anything positive to contribute,
it's always a slam on other users,
which you consider a win.

Discuss my retort

Doesn't god regularly make people that are against biblical virtue? Gays, trans, infertile, atheists, murderers for example?

I do, you're right in that the sins of sloth, greed, and gluttony are all related but they are still distinct sins. I suppose video games could be considered gluttony from a consumption perspective, or sloth from an inactivity perspective.

See my edit on thyroid too :)

Those are all states resulting from their own sinful thoughts and actions, not as God made them :)

What i've come to understand as Sloth is lounging, sitting idly or laying down.
While others tend the field for crops, a Sloth would lounge under a tree not helping or doing anything productive.

/e Thyroid or other metabolic disorders reduce the 'energy out' part of the equation, meaning people with such disorders need to compensate either by eating less or exercising more

How about if one becomes injured?

Most obese people don't have a thyroid disorder. Their sin is a combination of sloth and gluttony.


From human medical and science, obese is a human defined term, referring to weight.
If we take time to read bible(s), Gluttony is not defined as such.

But I'm getting into biblical food law, which most people don't even understand.
And you might say, "you said the word food" Yes but metaphors are not.

Playing a video game is sitting idly. It could be considered an expression of the sins of sloth, gluttony, and greed

If one becomes injured, their ability to exercise is diminished, thus imparing the 'energy out' portion, meaning to stay slim they would need to compensate by eating less, reducing the 'energy in' side of the equation

So, before the injury eat normal, during the injury eating normal = gluttony? :unsure:
