We are
all gluttonous. Even anorexics.
There are some anorexics who sport gluttony
for the extreme absence of food and crave the
self-indulgence of starvation. This is done
in the name of looking like a horror movie-style
skeleton monster.
The wages of sin are
looking ugly and an early death.
Then there are the lardy dudes, the waddling
obese (the McDonalds generation) whose french
fries-powered greed enfolds itself around them
making them corpulent and seem to have a lower
IQ than they possess.
Wages of sin: unjust
mockery; self esteem lower than an ant; oh and
a young death, when the heart can't pump blood
through the blubber any longer.
What about the rest of us? We all have a gluttony
for
something. The religious wallow in
a gluttony for self-delusion. The wages of sin
are, rather ironically, not hell. But neither
heaven nor limbo nor afterlife will be bestowed
upon them.
The wages of sin are that
their beliefs seem daft to everyone else. Also
they pay dearly in time, effort and money frittered
away on their religion-mirages.
Gluttons of wealth squander away their lives
collecting money.
The wages of sin are
a shallow existence. (This isn't true really,
I'm just jealous.)
Gluttons of booze, fags and drugs are common
enough. (I'm not moralising here - I'm no angel
to be sure!)
The wages of sin are hangovers,
expense, illness, brain damage, death and bad
breath.
Then you have the sex gluttons.
Wages of
sin: a jolly good time, weight loss, kids,
and, for the unlucky, infections and death.
There's always a down side isn't there?
Finally there are the gluttons for having no
indulgences at all.
The wages of sin:
in the end, death, just like the rest of us.
