NO...this is not a religious thread.
But it was so beautiful I just had to share it.

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the
Earth and populated the
Earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach, green
and yellow and red
vegetables of all kinds so Man and Woman would live
long and healthy lives.
Then using God's great gifts, Satan created Ben and
Jerry's ice cream and
Krispy Creme Donuts. And Satan said, "You want
chocolate with that?" And Man
said "Yea," and woman said, "And another one with
sprinkles." And they
gained 10 pounds.
And God created the healthful yogurt that woman might
keep the figure that
man found so fair. And Satan brought forth white flour
from the wheat, and
sugar from the cane and combined them. And woman went
from size 6 to size
14.
So God said, "Try my fresh green salad." And Satan
presented Thousand-Island
Dressing and garlic toast on the side.
And man and woman unfastened their belts following the
repast.
God then said, "I have sent you heart healthy
vegetables and olive oil in
which to cook them." And Satan brought forth deep
fried fish and
chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter.
And man gained more
weight and his cholesterol went
through the roof.
God then brought running shoes so that his children
might loose those extra
pounds. And Satan gave them cable TV with a remote
control so Man would not
have to toil changing the channels. And man and woman
laughed and cried
before the
flickering light and gained pounds.
Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in
fat and brimming with
nutrition. And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and
sliced the starchy
center into chips and deep-fried them. And man gained
pounds.
God then gave lean beef so that man might consume
fewer calories and still
satisfy his appetite. And Satan created McDonald's and
its 99-cent double
cheeseburger. Then said, "You want fries with that?"
And man replied, "Yea!
And super size 'em." And Satan said "It is good." And
man went into cardiac
arrest.
God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.
Then Satan created HMOs.
--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------
I find, then, this law in my case:
that when I wish to do what is right, what is bad is present with me.
I really delight in the law of God according to the man I am within,
but I behold in my members another law warring against the law of my mind
and leading me captive to sin’s law that is in my members.
Miserable man that I am!
--------------------------------------
And man replied, "Yea! And super size 'em."
Yep, that would be me.
