Very few: The only major one is that tobacco is drugs. Nicotine is perhaps the most addictive substance on the planet. And this comes from the many people that, try as they may, simply cannot kick the habit. That one is actually true.
And it's true that smoking is damaging to one's health, one's computer, and one's bank account. It also starts many a fire. Children should not be exposed to smoke from parents or babysitters. However, I do not buy this from the Puketower magazines. These come largely from mainstream health journals and programs. Just about any major health periodical and book, and any doctor, will tell you the same thing. If you smoke, you should quit for your health and to save the money for something you really want. If you quit for the Tower, you should not resume smoking once you leave since you are going back to a difficult addiction and giving up the one thing that actually helps with health issues.
And I still believe that anyone who skips enough meetings and service will end up outside the organization and no longer believe in it. That is true. That is because the organization relies heavily on illusions. And once you are away from it long enough, the illusions are busted. Once you bust the illusions, you cannot go back to believing it because you know it is all a lie.
Just about everything else is ... dead.

Perhaps you'd like me to come down there and prove you wrong.
Lessee.......Well, I don't believe Jesus is God. That's about it.

I don't believe that Jesus is/was God either, but then again I don't believe in God period so its kind of a moot point! Huh. I can't really think of anything that I still agree/believe/share. Not doctrinally. Not even philosophically. To me the whole "waiting on Jehovah" is an excuse to sit back and wait to be rescued, essentially refusing to accept responsibility. I find that far more immoral than adultery!

That caffeine, while suitably enjoyed in moderation, needs to be carefully monitored to make sure it doesn't become an addiction.
Actually, I personally agree with the above statement.
I just don't think some high-control religion has any business making it.
