If Catholicism is true do all obese people go to hell?

Question

And for that matter most all westerners, catholic or not. Look at how pope gregory defines gluttony and tell me you wouldn't be in hell if u died right now. Doesn't it expose the catholic religion for the abomination it is?

1. Eating before the time of meals in order to satisfy the palate.

Biblical example: Jonathan eating a little honey, when his father Saul commanded no food to be taken before the evening.[1Sa 14:29] (Note that this text is only approximatly illustrative, as in this account, Jonathan did not know he was eating to early.)
2. Seeking delicacies and better quality of food to gratify the "vile sense of taste."

Biblical example: When Israelites escaping from Egypt complained, "Who shall give us flesh to eat? We remember the fish which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers and the melons, and the leeks and the onions and the garlic," God rained fowls for them to eat but punished them 500 years later.[Num 11:4]
3. Seeking to stimulate the palate with sauces and seasonings.

Biblical example: Two sons of Eli the high priest made the sacrificial meat to be cooked in one manner rather than another. They were met with death.[1Sa 4:11]
4. Exceeding the necessary quantity of food.

Biblical example: One of the sins of Sodom was "fullness of bread."[Eze 16:49]
5. Taking food with too much eagerness, even when eating the proper amount, and even if the food is not luxurious.

Biblical example: Esau selling his birthright for ordinary food of bread and pottage of lentils. His punishment was that the "profane person . . . who, for a morsel of meat sold his birthright," we learn that "he found no place for repentance, though he sought it carefully, with tears." [Gen 25:30]
The fifth way is worse than all others, said St. Gregory, because it shows attachment to pleasure most clearly. To recapitulate, St Gregory the Great said that one may succumb to the sin of gluttony by: 1. Time (when); 2. Quality; 3. Stimulants; 4. Quantity; 5. Eagerness

Answer 1

Catholicism isn't truth.



All obesity isn't caused solely by gluttony. Gluttony is the act of eating more than one needs and afflicts many thin people as well. To judge someone based solely on their appearance is bigotry and discriminatory, and frankly idiocy as well.



Troll smarter!





ADDED: You can't possibly be that ignorant in modern day, can you? Medications and genetics, even injury all play a role in many cases of obesity...you troll here routinely so we know you have access to the internet, you should use it to learn a thing or two! (Hell, google the little 12 year old girl who's in dire need of surgery right now, reported in the past 2 months, who has a disease in which her own body believes it is starving and therefore retains all calories as fat...she's huge but not a glutton...ignorance is sad but unforgivable when it's accompanied by an open mouth, free opinion and closed mind on the topic!)

Answer 2

The Catholic Church and/or Christianity is the pagan religion in Rev. 17:5 Babylon the mother of whores!

You can know for sure that Christians are pagan because they worship a man named Jesus as a god!

Answer 3

There is no god, so no hell. Obesity carries its own punishments here on Earth - that's why you often see obese 30 year-olds, but obese 70 year-olds are very rare indeed. Obesity is the slowest but surest form of suicide.
