Amen! And then there are all those deadly sin-adjacent items: lust, gluttony, greed, envy, pride and sloth: 6 out of 7 relate to this Original Sin (or "OS," meaning operating system)!
As a novelist who has published four books centered on the complex, gorgeous lives of fat queers and those who love us, and also a book inspired by Northampton in the the time of 18th century theologian, preacher, and slave-owner Jonathan Edwards, whose most famous sermon is “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” you’ve caught my interest with this post!
My Fat Girl Dances with Rocks and Belly Songs: in celebration of fat women are out of print. But my short essay about standing up from the ground while observed, fat, and slow just came out in the Portable Feminist Reader, which made the New York Times bestseller lists! I’m also a new church member after four decades away. Nice to meet you. Here’s my website https://www.susanstinson.net/
