Nip-Tuck

Apropo of nothing, just sitting here watching the Discovery Health channel show Before & After stunned by the lengths folk will go to modify their bodys and hold on to that "youthful" look and feeling.

What happened to the respect and honor of growing old?

Particularly in the Judeo/Christian tradition - elderhood was a position of wisdom.

It's really sad...

1 Timothy 5:1 Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to the younger men as brothers,

Acts 14:23When they had appointed elders for them in every church, having prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

Hey JD,

I think it went into the same dark hole as gluttony. It's so bad in the US that the word obesity is not enough, now we have morbid obesity...
Proverbs 23:21 because drunkards and gluttons become impoverished, and drowsiness clothes them with rags.

Infidel at large,
