Article titled "10 Reasons Why Obesity Is NOT About Gluttony and Sloth." So food and exercise has nothing to do with weight? Yet here are the "real" causes:

  1. The term “obesogenic environment” relates to the influences of one’s environment over physical activity and eating behavior. [So eating?]

  2. Years of unhealthy diets [So eating?]

  3. Weight gain can be the result of emotional eating [So eating?]

  4. Identification of such genes may be helpful to identify at-risk individuals while influencing more care and attention towards healthy nutrition and physical activity [So eating?]

  5. Social influences play a role in our health behaviors including eating, exercise [So eating?]

  6. we can use food as a way to comfort us. [So eating?]

  7. Even when we decided to look at the nutrition labels, we are still dumbfounded with serving sizes [So eating?]

  8. A lack of access to affordable, healthy food along with environments that promote a sedentary lifestyle [So eating?]

  9. fear of fat is witnessed in how we talk about food, exercise [So eating?]

And then it closes with this:

The main treatment for obesity is a combination of healthy diet and physical activity.

Literally every point attempting to argue that it's not gluttony and sloth just says in different terms that it's gluttony and sloth. How retarded can you be?
