The Sin Of Gluttony

Definition: Gluttony is the willful and insatiable desire to over consume, excessively elevate, and be preoccupied with that which God created for good. It is more interested in consuming than in what is being consumed.God considers gluttony a character trait of an evil person, and so He tells us to avoid those who eat and drink too much.Don't drink too much wine and get drunk; don't eat too much food and get fat. Drunks and gluttons will end up on skid row, in a stupor and dressed in rags.Proverbs 23:20-21, MSGFor it is possible that a wise man may use the daintiest food without any sin of epicurism or gluttony, while a fool will crave for the vilest food with a most disgusting eagerness of appetite. And any sane man would prefer eating fish after the manner of our Lord, to eating lentils after the manner of Esau, or barley after the manner of oxen. For there are several beasts that feed on commoner kinds of food, but it does not follow that they are more temperate than we are. For in all matters of this kind it is not the nature of the things we use, but our reason for using them, and our manner of seeking them, that make what we do either praiseworthy or blameable. -St.Augustine, ConfessionsI fear not the uncleaness of meat, but the uncleaness of desire. -St. Augustine, Confessions

@margauxhuff/others who disagree with this video, here's my understanding of it:The purpose of food is to nourish us. We should eat in order that we may live healthy and fruitful lives. Unfortunately, some people (me included) are unable to resist eating more and more food, even though they are already already full. They will eat far more than their bodies need for nourishment, and this will end up harming their bodies by making them fat and unhealthy. It is this 'gluttony' that is sinful.

Gluttony's a sin. Just because you sin doesn't mean you'll go to hell. Sins are wrongful acts that you'll be confronted for in the afterlife.

being fat isn't a sin because you can become fat without eating a lot i.e slow metabolism. Overeating or gluttony is different the what most think, its when it becomes almost a addiction like drugs . And if you don't think that addiction is bad then i don't know what to tell you. Things like this you must take with a grain of salt people's interpretations of the bible and Christianity give it a bad name. Christianity is that condemning. Some of the scriptures are metaphors/figurative.

What about Binge Eating Disorder (BED)? Everyone who has that, including me, is going to hell?

I'm fat, so I'm a sinner. I'm a woman, so I am unimportant. I believe in gay rights, so I am just wrong. How does this logic work?

Not to be rude but.... this is rather stupid.
