I am so poorly read in the Christian Old Testament, a window on the Jewish Torah, that I can only cite a smattering of things as they happen to come to me.
It reminds me of my several years of bipolar affective disorder, manic depression, when I would at times wander barefoot through concrete suburbs, reeling about like a drunk, then open the bible at random and read something that I would interpret as imputing my personal condemnation.
Whoever invented the low or no-fat diet is a woman-hater nonpareil. Fat is good. (Meaningful pause.) FAT IS GOOD. And if you've convinced yourself that it doesn't TASTE good I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you.
Why do you think God required the FATTED calf for a sacrifice? In fact, if Cain had offered God his plate of crudites slathered in virgin olive oil, unsalted butter, cambazola, basil pesto, chipotle mayonnaise and a crushed olive/sun-dried tomato tepanade the history of civilization may have taken a completely different turn. You can't imagine how good vegetables taste when acquainted with high-quality fats.
