It's like fat people telling you to eat healthy. Just because they don't do it doesn't mean it's bad advice

Reminds me of the rabbi whose congregation complained about his many vices, saying that he's supposed to be better, he's supposed to show them the way. So he brought them to the edge of the town and showed them a direction sign.

"Does it show you the way? It does. And do you want it to go anywhere?"

But it does mean they shouldn't be taken seriously for any kind of health related advice in general.
