Fortunately, most fads pass on. Thus, a year or two from now few will remember the numerous promoters and their diets that now use the name of Jesus to sell their particular brand of salvation by losing weight. Unfortunately, right now there are a lot of them. One diet group claims to be offering weight reduction classes in 12,000 churches. One clown is quoted as saying, “We don’t do this so we can look in the mirror and be more attractive. We do it so people can look at us and see Jesus.” Did anyone mention hubris? I thought the Christian God was more interested in one’s soul than one’s body.
