Suzanne Summers on TV today, 65% (and within a year, potentially,
exponentially, 75%) of American adults are 'overweight'
also, I didn't see where the
SPs mention this (example) of sin/s in a NT context, but (rather) they
blast away homosex, etc., while, acc to the Ap Paul/NT, even 'gossip' (as well
as 'gluttony') is equally sinful as homosex problems relative to the
KoG
well, e.g., what's the diff betw obesity
(as an outcome of 'gluttony') and AIDS (as an outcome of homosex) in terms of
the impact on health care costs? FTR, I suspect that obesity has a far
greater cost impact..
Nevertheless, as I pointed out,
check out the questions the SPs in question ask an applicant (on the
Internet); their questions/expected answers seem to follow a 'moral' agenda
plotted out at the (flabby) RNC:) not at (e.g) the (lean and mean<vbg>
Jerusalem Council, ~AD15 <vbg>..
The NT 'narrowed' idea (of Jesus
himself) is to follow/please the Lord, not GWB/RNC/SLC/MMC
whatever..
>How much do you weigh?
..
240# now(*) , but I'm 6'2" with a 39"
waist, ~50" chest, 17.5" biceps/triceps and, at the ripe age of 53, (by
faith:) play on 3 baseball teams for fun--one an 'over 50' (or 50+) team, the
other two for 38+ players (age-wise)..also, on a co-ed softball team through my
job/work as a lifeguard at the local Englewood Rec Center
To give you an idea about this activity
[as an antidote to (my) gluttony/obesity that works], last Sat. after playing
every inning of a 9-inning bb game, I swam 2500 meters--100 meter bursts--50
down, 50 back (x 25)--in about 45 minutes; then did a series of lifeguard
training exercises, e.g., where we (~10 lifeguards, in pairs) were required to
rescue a drowning 'spinal cord' victim at the bottom of a twelve foot diving
zone and extract him strapped to a backboard in less than three minutes;
that's twelve feet down, pick up the vic, and return to the surface
slowly, under control at ~45 deg angle to prevent further spinal injury,
transfer the vic, etc. | Tonite, after the co-ed softball game, I did
16-50 yd wind sprints, i.e., run 50, walk 25, run 50, walk 25, etc. in the park
across the street. | This a.m. (before lunch with the boys at which I
ate one side salad and drank a cup of coffee:) I walked to the Eng HS
and back, ~2.2 miles total, with 10# leg weights and 10# 'dumbbells' (= 40
additional #s) workin' out the upper body (numerous reps of curls, presses, etc)
while walkin' down and back in ~40 minutes...and, ftr, I'm gettin' ready to do
it again before I go to sleep:) | * However, on a more humble/ing (perhaps
bearable:) note, it hasn't always been like this; as you (DavidM) alluded
to, I had nearly killed myself via heart attack ~125# overweight ~5
years ago before changing 'focus' or 'narrowing' (as described in several
contexts today)--praise God! (not Jos Smith, GWB, or even Suzanne
Summers; BUT it's fair to say that SS is definitely more useful reading
than either of 'em<lol>)
>Is this something that is now in your
past?
of course; as 'hands of
stone' said...'no mas'! :)
> There are only a few of the preachers
I know who are overweight.
> Most are young and very
lean.
perhaps (but how about Jn Haggie
on TV) (sp.?) and, since this is TT, I'd probably wager that you'll
actually discover that ~65% of preachers are strugglin' with this
cultural malaise personally (and, unfortunately, they'd sooner tell SS to
go to hell than read her books/try her ideas)

That's what I had in mind. another MM/PP
issue--eh?
to me, this simply means that SLC/MMM is
just like Disneyland--primarily concerned about humoring Americans in the
here and now while rakin' in
as much money as possible..
but why do you care while
you're not inclined to risk preachg like an SP anyway?
>Peace be with you... Thank you:) You,
too.
