    artually they do they follow the bible line on them..

    Proverbs 23:21
    for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags.

    1 Corinthians 5:11
    But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.

    1 Corinthians 6:10
    nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

    the problem is the bible clearly allows us to eat food to survive and allows alcohol in moderation and has been shown to have benefits in moderation so self regulation is needed on these to adhere to the bible principles involved.

    Smoking is not a food or drink it offers nothing but damage to our health it is literally just sucking poisons into our body! that results in cancer, heart disease, teeth falling out, sunken hollow features. emphasema, cotdeaths and the list goes on.

    stay away from the practices the Holy Writ is against, and help others to gain the knowledge and the heart desire so that they can do so as well

    When I was young and rebellious I smoked tobacco a bit, never enjoyed it though, so that was a restrction I could live with. I also smoked dope, that was much more entertaining!!!!

    delusions may seem pretty at the time, but they are still a warped reality
