Aquinas literally died due to his fatness and was known as being a fat guy his whole life.
Also interesting how someone can become a saint, while being a gluton?

You don't necessarily have to be a glutton to be fat. You could also be lazy, or simply profoundly diseased. I don't know what was the case with Aquinas.

In any case, picrel. Chesterton was monstrously fat. His own fault for being a gluttonous alcoholic.

I imagine Hume pulled a Marlon Brando towards the end of his life. I'm sure he was plenty filled by his 'passions'

Wow.
How can one not lose esteem for Chesterton, knowing he disgraced his own body in such an exaggeratedly vicious manner?

Saints aren't perfect, but I've never read that Thomas was a glutton, just fat. Here it is worth considering that medieval fat is not today's fat, and a large majority of the population would be considered fat by pre-modern standards. It's possible he had a legit thyroid condition or something considering he fasted and was fat all his life.

He also died by getting hit by a tree.

I'm very fond of Chesterton but you can't help but respect him less due to it, yeah. He was good-natured about it and regularly made jokes about it at his own expense, which does make the situation somewhat more likeable and sympathetic, but you'd certainly respect him more if he didn't let himself become so comically obese.
