I love the Lord and I love cigs. Help.

You can't go to heaven by being good in the first place, it's by grace.

I think the argument is pretty clear that smoking is dishonoring your body as a temple, but let each be fully convinced in his own mind. You should stop but not get it in your head that your justification depends on it.

I knew a nun and a brother who smoked at a Catholic high school when I was younger, believe it or not. Of course, it isn't right and especially not healthy, but I don't think it's a true reflection of one's lack of faith or virtue. We all have bad habits we must work on, but these aren't what send us to hell. True evil is another thing entirely. We cheapen it by equating it with bad habits.

It's coming out that the Covid-19 virus may be selecting smokers.

So, yes, smoking may be the express train to heaven if you've been good.

Addictions can feel near impossible to get off of but recognizing when we have one is always a good sign that we may be open to change and begin taking the first steps necessary to recovery. Here are some links on learning more about the harm of smoking, smoking cessation plans, apps for plans, and stateside quit lines. Finding direct assistance by speaking with your doctor on medicine for nicotine addiction and joining a local smoking cessation therapy group if available for direct guidance & progress monitoring may also be extraordinarily beneficial as well.

Quit them for lent, then pick up smoking a pipe afterwards. Cheaper, better for you, tastes better, is relaxing, more interesting, cooler all around. besides, with the virus around now, I don't think you have the luxury to as is. Maybe start hoarding cigs for currency after…. I don't know though. But pipes/cigars are better

Switch to nic pouches or vaping and slowly lower the nic percentage. Worked for me.
