title: Does private methods are considered in the God Class code smell?
body: <p>The PMD started warn me about having the God Class after adding a small private method to an existing class. </p>
  
  <p>I didn't find any clarification what types of methods are considered to be the reason of the code smell. It only says that it uses metrics to make a decision and such a class does too many things.</p>
  
  <p>From my point of view we can have as many private methods as we want as long as we follow the Single Responsibility rule.</p>
  
  <p>So I wanted to know whether my assumption is right or should I obey the PMD warning and make a refactoring. Thanks!</p>
