Reply from Winona, Age 17 - 06/27/04 - IP#: 63.183.113.xxx I really don't know much about "sin" and "Christianity", since I've never actually gone to a church. But that seems awful judgemental. People aren't perfect. I think people were given a body to do what they want with it. It only hurts themself if they don't treat it right. But no I don't think it's a sin...
Reply from Mandi, Age 17 - 06/27/04 - IP#: 208.243.85.xxx what ever happened to god making you the way u are for a reason? or we are all perfect in gods eyes?? i dont think obesity is a sin its not like we have been eating non-stop since we arrived on this earth. But then again i guess my veiw on god and religion is kinda relaxed. i guess all i can say is believe what feels right to you.
Reply from Kaitlyn, Age 14 - 06/27/04 - IP#: 216.74.216.xxx I don't think it should be b/c there are skinny people who have really good metabolisms, and just b/c ours is slow I don't think that is right. Gluttony is a sin, so that is why people think obesity is, but there are skinny people who are gluttonus so it is kinda weird.
Reply from mee, Age 15 - 06/27/04 - IP#: 64.12.116.xxx well im catholic, and practically everything is a sin, not going to church every week, thinking u r pretty (vainity/pride) not praying everyday, those r all sins. and obisity isn't exactly top on the list. if u really are abusing ur body by overeating then it is, but otherwise, dont worry about it.
