I've been thinking about this lately. If you actually think about it, every time you light up, all you're doing is slowly killing yourself. Smoking causes cancer and diseases that will ultimately lead to your death unless, you get hit by a truck or something first. So what's the difference between me slowly killing myself over the next twenty years, and just taking a straight edge sliting my wrists(down the highway, not across the tracks kids)? And no, I'm not a suicidal person.
It's not like I'm shoving my dick into a toaster and then jumping into a full bath tub, but I've smoked at least a pack a day for the last nine years. Up until I quit bartending in September I was smoking two packs a day. By my calculations, that means that I'll have either lung cancer, emphysema, heart disease, throat cancer, or at the very worst nasty nicotine stains on my fingers by the time I'm 40.
Yes, you're quite right, quitting sounds like a fabulous idea. Hadn't thought of that one yet. The only problem is that I actually enjoy smoking. I enjoy it the same way people enjoy smoking pot, crack and some other drug that you smoke that I don't know the name of.
But my smoking habits are not the point, and yes, you're right again, there really is no point to this post.
But what I want to know is this: If I die from a smoking related illness, will I go to Hell(Taking into consideration that there really is a god, heaven, hell and all that other stuff)?
I'm not a religious zealot or anything, but I do know that suicide is unforgivable in the Lords eyes. If there really is a Hell, I'm pretty sure I don't want to go there. Unless of course there are hot half-human half-goat chicks that give good head and like to swallow(Just for you GoodGirl), but somehow I think that sounds more like Heaven.

God is woman who straddles a grave
And each of us humans She labors to birth
Short is the trip so each moment do save
As you live your life falling 'tween Heaven and Earth
I just made that up.

God doesn't like it when you shit either. So says the almighty book.

This would be an important interogation...if God existed.

well you're pretty much fucked then. that would also make eating unhealthy food a sin because that kills you slowly, as does any other number of things we do everyday.
and remember, as soon as you're born, you start dying.

This is a bit of a flawed idea mate. Every person living slighlty over weight is slowly putting more and more pressure on there heart that will in the end cause heart failiure. Are they committing suicide? You could argue the point forever.
Well written though. Good work.

Actually, though God ISN'T real, this is more intelligent than most of the shit on here. Allow this to cancel out my -2 and give you a 0.

So much philosophy is wasted on the assumption god exists
do pets go to heaven?
will you be the age you died when you go to heaven, or whatever age you choose, what if you loved somebody who died when you were both 20, and then you found love again in your 60s?
if god is good why does he let bad things happen and send people to hell?
guess what? shut the fuck up

If slowly killing yourself is an evil then eating red meat, fatty foods, not exercising, alcohol, caffeine, too much sugar, using a cell phone etc are all surefire ways to hell. And if that's the case, heaven's going to be full of smarmy vegan faggots so who'd want to go there anyway.
