Originally posted by Eladar You see the word gluttony, but not the definition. You define it as being fat.
I've seen it described as volume of eating. Where in the Bible does it simply mean fat?
Gluttony is as bad as drunkenness according to the bible. You can decide what gluttony is yourself, according to you only the act of homosexuality is sin and not lustful thoughts...
Your hiding Eladar, I think you're a secret glutton.
Originally posted by divegeester So having homosexual thoughts or fantasies is not a sin?
What about gluttony? Clearly you are overweight and quite sensitive about it; you should be as gluttony is as bad as drunkenness which is as bad has homosexuality. But don't worry if you only think gay thoughts or think about eating.
Continuing in fantasy is sin. Initial thought is not sinful, just sin of the flesh.
Nothing sinful about being overweight, except for those who are dying.
Originally posted by Eladar It depends on why overindulgence is sinful. If the food eaten by a person could be used to feed the poor, would it not be sinful?
No, it's just consuming more than you need. It's a lust for food.

But there is Eledar, I've even given you the scripture. You keep hiding behind excuses like "it's not in the NT", or "the bible doesn't define gluttony".

I would say gluttony is worse.
Nowhere does it say you might as well kill yourself if you are a drunk.
'It does say if you are a glutton then you might as well commit suicide.
