I respect your right to religious freedom, Toasty. But if your superstitious campaign against smoking leads to more deaths, shame on you. If you dismiss the new scientific evidence because a little tobacco leaf scares you, shame on you.

You are projecting a conceited and distorted narrative. You know I am neither religious nor atheist either.

If I had to choose between having covid-19 or one of the high risk ugly diseases associated with smoking, I would choose Coronavirus any day. If it does get eventually proven Nicotine is considered a relief and\or cure from the viral symptoms, I hardly think it is going to be recommended that it be smoked for medicinal purposes. Shame on you for endorsing smoking born out of your stupidity and self-absorbed obstinance.

There you go again acting like a religious zealot and not listening to what others say if it contradicts your faith.

Smoking is not a sin. It won't kill you with one puff or even 10,000. It carries great risk with long term use. But plenty of people smoke for a few years then quit with no deleterious affects on their health.

I'm mocking your anti-smoking zeal and that of others which has reached a pitch of ignorant pseudo-religious ecstasy.

My bottom line here, if people are quitting smoking now to protect themselves from the corona virus, according to researchers in France and China they are doing themselves no favors. Wait until it subsides, because that nicotine may save their lives in the current pandemic. Quit after the virus is under control. Sheeesh.
