I don't mean to start a debate here about the harmfulness of smoking (especially since I do consider addiction a sin).. however, I live in a large metro area and I am certain that every time I get on the 8 lane interstate going to work I am "on purpose harming my body". I am killing myself by willingly breathing in every kind of foul chemical a deisel or gas vehicle can exhaust. Not only that, but over time the odds are that I will end up getting hit by some moron going 90 mph or some semi who couldn't break fast enough. And then there are all the texters......
Aaaaaaaaand i knew this argument was coming. It's always used when someone is trying to justify a bad habit
Does someone have to smoke, no.
Do we have to work, yes. We cannot help the pollution in the air, There is not a thing you or i can personally do to take every single pollutant out of the air. Can you help it if someone is texing and driving?? Can you personally control that person. Heck no. Do you see what im getting at.
Smoking is a choice that a person makes every day. No one is forcing you to inhale something that is toxic, you are doing it all on your own because you are addicted and you cannot stop.
This is all coming from an ex smoker. 11 years ..
