There is a recent study done at Northwestern University that links obesity to going to church! They analyzed data from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study, which followed more than 2,400 people aged 20 to 32 for 18 years. Over that time, the scientists reported at an American Heart Association conference, people who went to church or church activities at least once a week were more than twice as likely as people with no religious involvement to become obese. Not only does religion make you delusional and spend your time talking to imaginary friends (cruel, uncaring friends), but now you get to be overweight for your trouble.
If you are Mormon not only do you get to be FAT (See any and all "relief society" moms) for definitive proof of this, you get to give 10% of your income to the church that makes you FAT, less money for your health care, but hey you get to go to the temple and heaven right?
I am waiting to see how the Mormon church addresses this one! Should be entertaining to say the least....
