Ep. 18 – When Does Overeating Become Gluttony?

A listener messaged me to ask “when does overeating become gluttony”?

It’s a good question as gluttony is such a common sin.

“Saint Thomas Aquinas says, “Gluttony denotes, not any desire of eating and drinking, but an inordinate desire . . . leaving the order of reason, wherein the good of moral virtue consists.”
