Fat hypocrisy I recently got a message from a fat cousin of mine ranting about gay people getting married as a result of today's supreme court decision. What annoyed me immensely about him and every other Christian in the country who is upset at today's decision is that while the bible devotes a few verses to the condemnation of gay people, it is full of condemnation for both gluttony and sloth. One of the big arguments I find that Christians have is that while fat people are ashamed of their fat, gay people are proud of being gay. However, most gay people I've met (including myself, as I'm bi) seem to be perfectly fine to keep discussion of their sex lives in the bedroom or among friends, while the fat acceptance movement and fat people in general are quite proud of their weight, and constantly project issues pertaining to it onto anyone who will give them the time of day. I don't understand why many Christians are so quick to condemn something that does not abridge and rights they have, while they accept the immense burden to society that fat people cause on a daily basis.
