So when the human being is subjected to drives, he believes to be free by following them, while he is governed by forces outside his free will. Indeed, the urge to smoke is due to a dependence, thus to a force against the free will of the human person. It is the drug of the cigarette that is an infringement on the personal freedom, not the ban to smoke! Let a smoker smoke, it means letting a child play with matches. If really he was an adult and a responsible, he wouldn't smoke. A psychological study showed that a woman who smokes tries to find in the cigarette a substitute in the male penis. The smoker has in common with the one who doesn't wash himself the LACK OF HYGIENE. Now the one who doesn't wash himself is, in most of the cases, not concient that he hurts, while the smoker knows that he hurts. A smoker continues to smoke although he knows that it hurts to himself. Now a person who is inclined to hurt is also inclined to hurt the others, then... A proverb says that someone can't like the others if he doesn't like himself. Because the smoker does not like itself himself, he can't like the others. Sounds like another liberal activists. Get out the violins. |

What a bunch of crap!! --Especially the penis remark. ...The only
honest statement I've read on this thread is the point regarding one's personal disgust over the smell of cigarette smoke. ...Sure goes to show how easy and controllable people can be by a few strategically placed words on TV. ...A psychological scare tactic that suckers individuals in like the Jehovah Witness'. ... Listen...People breathe in tons of noxious chemicals every day....All day long, from vehicle exhaust, industry, forest fires, radon gas, asbestos products, air conditioners, etc. etc. etc. ...But there's this mind set that second hand smoke (probably because it can be seen) emanating from someone standing 50 feet away is the big killer. ...Ridiculous. ...I quit smoking back in 77, but I bet I inhaled more deadly chemicals while disembarking in San Diego (during the fire) than I did throughout years of puffing. ...Want to stay healthy and live a long life? ...Then get off your butt, and cut down on some of that junk food that's not only expanding your back side, but clogging up your arteries. ...Jon |

Every bar closed at 9pm, no one to be found after 10pm. Never saw anyone in any of the nightclubs. We sailed the Paradise January 2003 and had the opposite of your experience. We danced till 1 or 2am every night, we ran into a group of young guys who claimed they had spent $75 on booze on the first day alone (and watching them drink, I don't doubt it for a minute!), our problem (as always on Carnival ships) was trying to decide what to do late at night as we couldn't do everything. -- Asya Kamsky |

It's really nice to read a post from an ex-smoker who doesn't buy into
the ridiculous hyperbole of the powerful anti-smoking lobby. You da man, Bob. Howie Reef Fish wrote: (Cygne 2003) wrote in message ... Mind you this is a newsgroup. As such, bulls and BS roam. I am actually the Devil Himself. But for you, I'll only play His advocate. The health is indeed the most important thing in the life. When someone wishes a happy New Year, he wishes as well a good health ! That's your faulty assumption! Happiness is not synomymous with good health. MONEY makes lots of folks happy. Furthermore, if you are Chinese, the New Year wishes are "Kung Hee Fat Choi" (in Cantonese), which loosely means "wish you make a fortune (get rich)." Many of those Chinese smoked opium. :-)) If he thinks the ban to smoke affects his "freedom", please, say to him that if he had a little more worked at school, he would have learnt in the course of philosophy what means the word "freedom" and would have heard this Spinoza's quotation : You've been smoking too much Spinoza! :-) The modern Spinoza can argue that the inudstrial pollution and the aerosol spray cans kill more than the smoke from smokers, and will eventually kill the entire human race via global warming and ozone depletion. :-) Indeed, the urge to smoke is due to a dependence, thus to a force against the free will of the human person. It is the drug of the cigarette that is an infringement on the personal freedom, not the ban to smoke! Really? Regarding the subject of "dependence" see my rec.travel.air article referenced below. A psychological study showed that a woman who smokes tries to find in the cigarette a substitute in the male penis. And Dr. Sigmund Freud things everything you ever dream of has something to do with sexual organs. :-) The smoker has in common with the one who doesn't wash himself the LACK OF HYGIENE. Now the one who doesn't wash himself is, in most of the cases, not concient that he hurts, while the smoker knows that he hurts. Aren't you confusing BO with BS? Are you now advocating the banning of all those races of folks who tend to have strong Body Odor compared to folks of other races? A smoker continues to smoke although he knows that it hurts to himself. Now a person who is inclined to hurt is also inclined to hurt the others, then... A proverb says that someone can't like the others if he doesn't like himself. Because the smoker does not like itself himself, he can't like the others. Are you just practicing your rhetoric in preaching, or do you really believe some of the BS you've been posting? Rather than repeating what I've posted three years ago, on this very subject, I'll simply point you to that posting of mine, which is MY response to the present post: http://makeashorterlink.com/?X53E12468 Three years after that post (2001), the following stand: RF I've not smoked a single cigarette since 1992. I have not MISSED RF it one bit -- that even surprised me, given all the addiction- RF talk I've heard up to then. RF I don't mind people smoking in my presence. I don't RF sermonize against smokers any more than I don't sermonize RF against people who use hair sprays, e.g.. RF I have just completed a thorough physical check up, RF and received a PERFECT bill of health, among which was not a RF trace of any ill-effect from 30 yrs of smoking, the same as on RF the day I quit in 1992. I remain in perfect health, travelling and cruising more in one year than most folks in their life time. On my last regular visit to my doc, he made this declaration that surprised me, "Wow, your lung is incredibly clear," after having me talk a few deep breaths and listening to various parts of my lung with his stethoscope. I just finished a week of liveaboard scuba diving, which probably helped clear my lungs, and nose, and sinuses. :-) 30+ years of heavy smoking didn't kill me. 12 more years of passive smoking (other smokers) didn't kill me. I don't miss smoking one bit. Never had a cig or wanted a cig in those 12 years. I quit smoking NOT for health reasons, but for reasons of getting sick and tired of anti-smoking laws and anti-smoking zealots who couldn't just "live and let live". (Those allergic to smoke excepted). What were you saying, preacher Cgyne 2003? :-) -- Bob. |

Were you perhaps so thrilled to read his stance on smoking that you didn't notice the following posted by Reef Fish: " Aren't you confusing BO with BS? Are you now advocating the banning of all those races of folks who tend to have strong Body Odor compared to folks of other races? ....all * THOSE * races have strong body odor? (P.S. Please don't anyone bother making a joke like "I thought he meant white...ha ha ha." I can already see it coming.) |
