I smoke because of the good effects it does to me, it calms me down, it makes me think clearly, it relaxes my muscles, etc. and I think it would be more harmful for me if I don’t smoke whenever the situation tells me to (and I regularly go and keep my health in check btw). I’d be better off a smoker than not be a smoker and live a distressed life because of physical and emotional stress. It happened to me in the past and that is why I choose to be like this now. I can say that smoking did me a lot of good. But that is just me.

So if one side says smoking is all bad and the other side says not it’s not bad for you, then who is correct? The truth is probably somewhere in between. Look at who is funding the research and you will find the answers. Our scientific folk are not as impartial as they are thought to be, if they get paid to come up with a specific finding, that’s what the result will be. Think about it, who has the most to gain. Whilst I don’t smoke I don’t see any problem with other people choosing to use a legal product and smoke.

I have seen people at tender age of 30ish die due to other complications. One thing I noticed was that they do not smoke or had never smoke and they dont drink.

For the sake of the wife and child .. had to struggle to give it up but ended up like Tom sawyer and Huck (or was it only Huck) to light up in the dark away from known nagging parties.
Makes me feel young again.

I believe that smoking has helped me lived till this ripe age. Some university has to do a research on this topic. The hypothesis, “has smoking help those who are workaholic and lived a highly stressed life lived longer”.
Get a cigarette company to sponsor those fags. Its will do mankind good or at least prolong the lives of those who die at 30ish leaving a lovely wife or husband and some young siblings.

One thing for sure, those drugs that make imaginary birds to fool the brain (those stop smoking drugs) can cause some serious side effect or at least abnormal situation. Try them to find out. I have.
They not only fool your brain, they make a wholesale revamp of your imagination. For me, I have funny dreams every night and automatically gets up at 4 in the morning. Been at it for 2 months… then I quit taking those drugs.

The only thing that had help me was that I had fooled my cardiologist on my route to success without a fag.

When’s the last time any government really cared about their people??

And to quote the immortal George Carlin:
“They don’t care about you. They don’t care about you. They don’t care about you. At all. At all. At all.”

That being said, why are we being bombarded daily with anti-smoking ads, signs, and basically doom and gloom messages everywhere we look about smoking?

But.. there is very little to be said about alcohol harming our bodies, liver and
other organs.

Here is my theory:
The powers that be, like I said before, don’t give a good god damn about anyone. All they care about is revenue.

They also know about the protective properties of smoking/nicotine.
Cigarette smoking IS good for you in many ways.

You can choose to believe that or not .. that’s your prerogative. BUT! Before you dismiss this as another hair brained conspiracy theory, you might want to look here first:

forces.org/evidence/evid/therap.htm

The people in power only care about revenue. Sick people create revenue in the system by being hospitalized, taking medications etc. If you are healthy, you are of no use to them. They want sick and dying people.

I believe that if you smoke, your chances of getting sick are reduced significantly. Of course I expect everyone to vehemently disagree with that statement, but we need to open our mind just a bit and try to resist the initial gut reaction. You were brought up to believe that smoking is the root of all evil.

They want people to get sick, so they can run up the health care costs.. therefore they are bombarding us incessantly with the ‘CIGARETTES KILL’ message.

We know that drinking causes all sorts of illnesses, but where are all the anti-drinking ads?? Why have I not seen ANY ads condemning drinking????

BECAUSE IT KILLS!!!! They don’t want you to stop drinking because it actually CAUSES diseases! Why would they want you to stop?? They know it causes tons of revenue in health care costs. AND it has the added benefit of knocking off a hundred thousand people every year in the US alone.

On the other hand, smoking PREVENTS dementias, promotes clarity in thinking, and if you’ve taken the time to read some of the points in the link above, MANY other ailments.

I smoke over a pack and a half per day EVERY day. Been doing that for YEARS.. where are my serious illnesses?? I have NO grey hair.. no health problems whatsoever and I have no problem concentrating.. which is another thing that smoking helps promote. I’ve also not had a cold or flu in YEARS.. ask any smoker when’s the last time they got sick.

oh, and btw, i’m also a Singer/Performer.. no problems singing, breathing or anything requiring lots of energy.. singerdex.com.

The powers that be KNOW this, this is why they want to scare the shite out of everyone regarding smoking. They want everyone to believe that smoking IS the root of all evil.. so they will choose not to smoke.. thereby increasing the number of sick people, and therefore their revenue.. and of course let’s not forget.. population control.

Smoking also promotes longevity.. if you are not sick or have any dementias, chances are you will also live longer..

There. I said it.

Fucknut.

[Before calling people names, you should probably read the whole post...]

“If you can’t tell by now, I wasn’t being very serious with those answers, but there’s only one reason for that: there is enough evidence out there (which lots of people believe) which suggests that smoking is damaging to your health. And I believe it. But that’s not the point.”
