So I stared vaping for fun along with some of my other friends (with no nicotine of course), and I’m not sure if it’s a sin. Is it? Please answer and THANK YOU!

It's like eating junk food. Is a nacho plate the size of your head smothered in yellow cheese flavored plastic a sin?

Seems worse than drinking non-alcoholic beer, and not as bad as getting addicted to actual nicotine.

Many Christians even debate with themselves if actual smoking is a sin, I attest that it is. Not only is relying on a chemical instead of God or a healthy activity a rejection of God, but the very act of "maintaining" or engaging in the behavior over and over becoming fixated on it is also unhealthy and an ignorance of God.

But it's nicotine free?

Inhaling "vape" is bad for your lungs and body, doesn't matter than it's "not so bad" or "as bad", you are still choosing to engage in an unhealthy act to cope with reality or distract yourself from reality or "amplify" reality, depending on your reasoning/excuse for doing so.

And your vape is going to put you around people using nicotine and other "stuff" in their vapes, wait until they pass you there "e-cig" and you get a couple puffs out of their magic electronic dragon. You hold in your hand a nicotine-free electronic gateway to drugs!

I'm not physically addicted or crave it or anything.

It's can become a "fixation", crutch, activity you do or feel like doing to disengage or feel comfortable socially. You're using your e-cig to increase your enjoyment instead of God, and you may even have the vape on the mind distracting you from healthy thoughts. I worked with people who took periodic smoke breaks to do the e-cig like you without any of the blatant poison in it, it can become a fixation or habit, which isn't a good one in this case.




I start and quit smoking "real" tobacco multiple times a year (currently I do not), and drink 4-5 alcoholic beverages as a social crutch or to cope with reality by myself, I guess a couple times a month I do this. I drank two bottles of wine on Tuesday and also Wednesday. I'm not a saint telling you that I'm better than you or that your actions are a definite ticket to hell.

I know when I do these things it's a sin, I feel guilty about it, I repent, I ask God to help me stop and to fight the urges when I have them. I recognize the sins for what they are, that's all I want you to do.

As long as you're not vaping glue you should be OK. If your not sure if something is wrong or not it is best to not do it. Glad to have you join us. Welcome to CC.

Why would you want to vap then? If you are not getting anything from it why do it?... I started smoking because I was stupid I keep smoking because I'm addicted. If there isn't a drug in it and you are doing it just because that is stupid especially if you think it might be a sin. Why test the waters that is stupid!?! Why is smoking a sin? Who said? Sin or not smoking sucks because I am a slave to it... wait isn't that sin to be a slave to something other than a bond servant to G-d!?! Ok smoking is sin, but not because of nicotine. Is vaping that fun if you do not get off on it in some, even small way? Just wondering?

The guy, who believes the earth is flat, surrounded by a wall of ice, said it's a sin, so it must be.

I didn't just declare it a sin, I gave my reasoning. You can agree or disagree with the reasoning. The ice wall wasn't a part of my reasoning on this matter, but if it could be I would have definitely included it.

If it becomes an addiction, that would be sinful.
Addiction is a form of idolatry.

I really don't know, why don't you go and sort that out between you and God.

I chopped every tree down in my yard and had stuff put in them to kill the stump. I need them to stay out of my sewage system more than I need photosynthesis...

I know someone who does the same thing just because he likes the taste of it. No big deal
