*Gluttony always requires company.
What's the point showing off greed alone?
Gluttony has no policy of equality.
A glutton is accustomed to fatten his rotten soul.
Greed feeds the glutton, food, money, power, ***
no thought for anyone but themselves.
Selfish to the core.
Excessive desire turning commodities
into necessities, the biggest car,
the flashiest ring, the biggest house,
the newest toy, but no joy.
The excessive desire
for the sin of want, Gula.
Gluttony*

In Christianity, it is considered a sin if the excessive desire for food causes it to be withheld from the needy
Because of these scripts, gluttony can be interpreted as selfishness; essentially placing concern with one's own interests above the well-being or interests of others.
