I'm sure I could come up with a list of highly intelligent people who are obese. I know I could. So I'm not sure I get your point.



Then why is there so much interest in this thread? Why are people telling me about all the gravy they consume. Is that intelligent? Why do some say that nothing about health can be proved? That everything is just a theory? What about those who call for moderation? What is moderation? One pizza per week or one pizza per month? Moderation is whatever each individual says it is and therefore it's meaningless. Where's the intelligence?
If you have not gotten the message yet, mature successful adults do not like to be preached at regardless of whether it is nutrition, religion or lifestyle. You need to come across less arrogant and condescending and come to realize that the book from which you preach was written by individuals with personal opinions and all too often, personal agendae. For every tit there is a tat. and oh, by the way if you check your backyard and you can't find your goat, I've got it!

Now chill and let everybody enjoy their Thanksgiving Feast.
