In general, I agree, eating unhealthy is bad for the body.
In any case, we need to not get legalistic and into bondage of giving too much attention to diet, I think.
Also, if we pay the wrong kind of attention to what we are doing, we can miss how we need our deeper correction and maturing in Jesus.
There must be a part of the body that only exists in this physical dimension, and the part of the body that is a dwelling for God in the Spirit.
Well . . . I think God wants all of our body. So, we might still have something to learn.
I offer I get what you are saying about "degrees". And still I am open about this, too.
I think it could be meant, in any case, that fornication is a major betrayal and maybe even we could say an attack against our bodies. It is a major thing.
One thing I think of, right now > let's say I eat too much food. This can be out of ignorance or weakness. It might not be a calculated thing. But fornication can take investment and planning and justification much more involved and complicated, and arranging our location . . . on we could go . . . arranging with another person . . . actively betraying people who care about us, plus being a horrible example to whoever we do the fornication with, and other people.
And yet . . . But then . . . it involves more than sinning against our physical body, doesn't it? There is the spiritual level of sinning against love of people, and against God, of course.
A thing I think of is fornication makes a person one flesh with another person. This is sinning against the person your body belongs with, in love. What other sin can be against who you belong with, as one flesh?? So, I see this is a love teaching, about how we need to live so we are one flesh only with whomever God has for us.
Does it say you sin against your own body, or "your own flesh"? "Your own flesh" could mean all your brothers and sisters in Christ and anyone you belong with in marriage. Let's check the wording >

Well, it says "against his own body" . . . not "against his own flesh". Even so, I think we might have something here.
