Imma guess being 80 years old and grossly overweight as contributing factors.

I can think of another grossly overweight octogenarian I'd rather had been found dead.

Prince Mongo - a guy who continuously ran in every Memphis mayoral election from 1978 until his death as an Independent. He also claimed to have been born on the planet Zambodia around 333 years ago.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
