Virtually all cultures have linked sickness to carnal living, and it is clearly true from natural consequences of actions, as well as arguably from the principles that human life consists of and its relation to God and others.
I don't think it is foolish to think that lifestyle choices effect health.
So which is it? Demon sent or god given or life caused? I prefer definitive answers with evidence not "virtually all cultures" and nonsense like that.
I know it is stupid to blame infant mortality on lifestyle choices. I know it is stupid to blame death from contagious disease on lifestyle choices.
I also know that if your malicious, malevolent deity can only act through changing the life-span probabilities your deity is governed by actuarial statistics having no personal input and is therefore immaterial in the scheme of things. Nice going.
