Fat Is Good

A recent study suggests that fat people have a tendency to live longer than skinny people, or the correct weight people.  I am more on the skinny side.  Time to eat more chocolate.    Cancel my gym membership.  Anyone making these kind of New Year resolutions?  I mean, if I am going to sweat and eat kelp, what is the payoff?  It is the same with prayer.  You can pray more and live a shorter life.  Lots of martyrs did it and a few anorexic saints to boot.  If you knew your life would be shorter if you pray more, would you give up prayer?  Recall, Jesus lived a pretty short life.  He prayed a lot.  The prayer payoff is not a longer life.  It is eternal life.
