Evolution doesn't happen over decades.

More people are fat because they are overeating and not exercising enough nowadays. FACT
Thanks for stating that FACT. I hope this thread is still open for debate.

Here's what I said in my last post:

I am simply saying that it is my belief that obesity is not the problem it is made out to be. And for those who it is a problem, they should not be denigrated for something they may not be able to control.

As for your fact about overeating and not exercising enough, if you have a high metabolism, and you overeat and are lazy, you'll probably have high blood pressure, increase your risk of cancer and heart disease but chances are you won't get fat.
