Abby: No, it's not a sin, but it might show ingratitude to God for his sacred gift of life.

Getting Serious About A Diet

Be sure you don’t judge others. All judgment is reserved for God. You can find the Parable of the Weeds in your Bible. Just go to Matthew 13.

↓ Transcript
Nim: I've been kidding myself, but now I'm serious about my diet.

Nim: I don't want others judging me and thinking I'm just a fatso.

Con: And they shouldn't. Jesus teaches us in the Parable of the Weeds that we shouldn't judge the "Good Seed" from the "Weeds." All judgment should be left to God.

Nim: That might be helpful if I was eating seeds. But what I need is a diet food that doesn't taste like feet!
