New article, as linked from Inferno.
'''Gluttony''' is the inability to control one's appetite, and is one of the [[Seven Deadly Sins]]. Today it is most associated with overeating, but in Medieval times, drunkenness was considered a prominent form of gluttony (this might explain why the punishment for gluttons in [[Dante's Inferno]] is eternal rain).
In modern times, the categorisation of alcohol abuse as gluttony could also be extended to encompass [[addiction]] to [[drugs]] as well.
