This question will come in a few parts.
A.) Obesity rates in America are somewhere around 21 percent. That means 21 percent of people are openly living in sin. The homosexuality rate in America is somewhere around 8 percent. If Christians are trully trying to speak out against sin, why do they pay so much more attention to a sin that only hurts some 8 percent of the population, while totally ignoring a much bigger sin that hurts 21 percent of the population. Shouldn't the focus be more on the sin that effects more people? Gluttony has more than 3 times the impact on our citizens' souls than does homosexuality. What is the reason that Christians are so worried aobut that 8 percent, but not the 21 percent, if of course, their true reasons are that it is a sin and they are worried about people's souls.
B.) Is it true that if you are born again, then you will stop living in sin, and stop doing it? Does that mean that fat people are in fact not trully born again, since they are still blantantly living in the sin?
c.) Should fat people be able to be preahers? If not, then why are they? If so, then why is it wrong for homosexuals to be preachers, as they are both obviously living in sin? Why does there seem to be this double standard here? Does a good Christians treat sins differently?
D.) Why do I never see a Christian protesting an Outback Steakhouse as some overweight guy goes in to eat his nightly 20 ounce steak? If your motivations are trully that you are against sin and trying to save souls, why do you spend so much time protesting homosexual actitivities, yet never protest the fat guy going to glutton (can that be a verb?) more?
E.) Why are there never threads on this website, debating the morallity of fat people? Why do I never see any of you starting threads that ask if it is a sin to be fat? If the true motive is as pure as you'd like us to believe, why is it that everything is so... almost obsessed with homosexuality, but nothing about the other sins?
F.) Why do the Boy Scouts allow fat people to be members? If they are trully against people living in sin, why are half of the members fat and partake in boy scout sponsored glutton sin parties where they all get together and eat themselves into Hell?
G.) Could it be that people's motives aren't quite what they claim to be?
