  • Abstract:
  • “They will say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunk.” - Deuteronomy 21:20 (NIV). It becomes gluttony when we have to constantly have something in our mouth and have to chew it: for example, popcorn in the cinema, ice cream in the pedestrian zone, and salted peanuts in the pub. Too much food and a little exercise for four weeks are enough to increase body weight and fat storage in the long term. Evagrius Ponticus was the first Christian monk who, at the end of the fourth century AD analysed about eight evil thoughts: gluttony, pride, anger, greed, vanity, lust, sadness and despondency. A little later, Pope Gregory I the Great combined sadness with despondency, vanity with pride into one sin, and added envy. In this article, we will discourse about a phenomenon called “gluttony” and about “sinners” who live to eat and drink.
