This weeks reading's talked about the view of "too much" and being "sloth-like" or in sin previously in what I believe to be the 17th century. The argument presented by Schmidit was vaguely familiar to some reading's we did earlier in the semester talking about "trading sleep to get ahead in society" and the pressure society puts on us and previously put on those in the 17th century are very closely related. In the 17th century people who slept too much or stayed idle for too long where viewed as sinful, but now we look at those who sleep too much as "behind in society" or simply lazy.
