More on gluttony

More on gluttony from an SBC pastor  HERE

(excerpt)
What about the astronomically high number of cases of diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and other physical problems associated with the consumption of high calorie desserts at our church fellowships? Why don’t we discipline people for the sin of eating the “wrong” foods? Have you looked at the average weight of Southern Baptists compared to overseas evangelicals? Go on any mission trip and sit in the airport and watch people walk the terminal. You will be able to spot the Americans, and more than likely, distinguish the Southern Baptists from the rest of the Americans.

I do suspect that the  average American Evangelical is OVERWEIGHT.  Luckily we don’t drink?  Hmmm, it all will kill you before your time.
