Smoking is good for you, And I love it!

I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEW MICHAEL MYERS MOVIE! I'm going the first night it's out. I love all the Halloween movies except # 3 Like you mentioned science has shown that cigarettes can be bad BUT so is everything else. Too much of anything will eventually kill you. There was a kid last year who drank 12 Nestle ice teas a day for 6 months and completely destroyed his kidneys because of an active ingredient in the tea that crystallized in his kidneys. Now the kid is 22 and will be on dialysis for the rest of his life. Eating too much bacon can cause heart disease. Eating too much of one item can cause stomach cancers. Moderation to anything is the key. And tobacco is the same. If you are smoking less than 6 cigarettes a day it will hardly do anything in your body. I told my doctor I smoke 4 cigarettes a day and he just shrugged his shoulders. It is ironic how many doctors and nurses say cigarettes are bad, Yet if you look in the smoking areas just on the outside of hospital properties they are all smoking. I see doctors smoke all the time, You would think they would have the most knowledge on the subject of tobacco consumption. Smoking can only be bad if you chain smoke over a pack a day, Otherwise having a cigarette, Your body gets rid of the toxins within 2 hours of smoking. We have toxins in Coca Cola, Like sulphuric acid, Citric acid sodium citrate which are very harmful to the body in mass quantities yet nobody is complaining about Coca Cola. Cigarettes are no worse than alcohol, And are way better than meth, Heroin fentanyl, Ecstasy and cocaine. The key to cigarettes as in anything else is moderation. Cigarettes are not bad, And I have pointed out some benefits. I believe all the negative info on cigarettes is just media fear mongering. Cigarettes will never go away just like alcohol, People enjoy it and some may frown but in the end it's a personal choice. mic drop
Smoking is good for you, And I love it!

This is off topic but I was wondering if you're excited for the new Michael Myers movie coming out. It'd be imperative that you evidently confirm these taboos and misconceptions about smoking. Take any of the negative factosrs listed above and prove whether or not it is a common misconception or a scientific phenomenon. "I want people to realize that it's not that bad". You just disproved your own argument by saying that smoking is bad, But not as bad as people think. Smoking, According to your statement, Is still bad, Therefore it is not good for you. Certain substances and products that are bad are still legal, But not because it is good for you. The reason why the government has not outlawed smoking cigs is due to their past experience with another substance that is worse, If not equally bad, Than cigarettes. Alcohol. Due to complains about domestic violence and alcoholism induced by drinking, People, Particularly women, Launched the Temperance Movement which urged the government to make reforms on drinking alcohol. In 1919, The Prohibition Act(Eighteenth Amendment) was officially implemented into the US Constitution. Basically, It was an all out ban on any alcoholic beverages. However, The results didn't live up to the expectations of the activists and politicians. It actually undermined their cause. Criminal organizations seized control of alcohol. They sold and managed it in an underground network of bars and saloons. While the rate of alcohol consumption decreased in the beginning, It drastically increased once the mob made a foothold. There were no economic gains from the banning of alcohol. People started to turn to more dangerous substances like opium and cocaine. Smoking is still harmdul to the body, But the reason why we don't ban it is so that the government can oversee and regulate the production and selling of cigs and because people will be using it more. The reason as to why smoking was socially and culturally acceptable back then is because modern science was not as adcanced as it is today. Over the years, Research and experiments have been conducted on smoking cigarettes; it has been concluded that smoking is bad. It's the same with pollution. People thought pollution was not a problem until the environmentalist movement showed up. It is impossoble to abstain from smoking cigs incessantly. The amount of nicotine they put into it makes people hooked, As if their life depends on it. Its nicotine that decieves you into thinking that you love it. Nicotine causes your body to release dopamine, Which makes you feel relaxed and relieved. What happens when your source of smoking cigs is gone? You'd go into withdrawal and that is a terrible experience you could have avoided if you didn't smoke in the first place. Sodas and junk foods are still condemened, But not as much as cigarettes because junk food can be consumed in moderation, While cigarettes shouldn't be touched at all, Especially for kids. As stated before the cons outwiegh the pros and there are many alternatives to smoking that can give the same results which are better and risk free.
Theism

This is indeed my first debate on this site. I wish have my initial debate concerning the validity of Atheism, the belief that no god or gods exist and created the universe. Do not be under the impression that, for this is merely my first debate, I am unlikely to win. I debate professionally every month and have acquired many skills in doing so. This debate is about the validity of Theism and whether or not it is the correct view. To make it simpler, it is about whether or not a god or gods exist. I will be taking the con side. Looking at many previous debates on this site, I can see that many people neglect to follow certain rules. Therefore, I am going to present some:1. In an effort to make this debate more serious, civilized, and correct according to the universal rules of debate, proper spelling and grammar should be utilized at all times.2. For any websites, books, or other media you utilize, you must cite them. I personally prefer MLA citation, but you can use whatever method you wish to use. To make this debate orderly, round 1 will be used only for acceptance. Round 2 will be for main arguments only. No rebuttals will presented in round 2. For round three, rebuttals will be stated. Round 4 will be utilized for final rebuttals and your conclusion. In this debate, I am looking to debate someone who is serious about their position as Theist and who will not simply forget about this debate or be incapable of taking it seriously.

The man was dressed all in black. He had black shades over his eyes, and was leaning heavily on a cane. "Your parents are dead,. He said. "They fell into the valley after coming out of the pub last night. Now you come with me. You're going to an orphanage." Reluctantly, the girl packed a small bag of her things. She followed the man onto the busy streets. The man walked quickly. She had to run to keep up with him. That was when she lost him. Had he turned the corner up ahead? The girl sprinted towards it, turning the corner, when she ran full on into someone. Both fell to the ground. The girl shook her head and looked up. It was the royal princess...

Every night, the daughter of the alcoholics watched as both her parents stumbled through the door of their tiny house. She would cower in fear as each one came upstairs, reeking. She sat in bed, hoping they wouldn't come inside. Wishing against all odds that maybe, just maybe, one day, they wouldn't come home drunk. She knew it would never happen, but every night she still wished. As soon as she heard the front door slam shut, she started to hope. That is, until they didn't come home...

The King wandered to the bottom of the cross. He took a match from his pocket and lit it and threw it into the pit. The flames grew and grew. They crawled up the cross, towards Anna's feet. Anna screamed. The people, King, and Princess chanted "Grow our flames, tickle the body. For on this day, no witch shall stray. Kill thy evil, kill thy witch. THE WITCH WILL PERISH!" over and over. The flames grew and grew. Soon, Anna's body was covered in fire. The moon shown through the trees, onto the cross, onto Anna's burning face. "You all shall die!" she cursed. "You shall burn upon my ashes!" Anna gave a final scream and died. The king stood up and said. "The witch is dead! We shall celebrate!" And that is what they did, until Princess Kayla screamed. "The fire! The fire! It's out of control!" Everyone looked up and indeed it was. The fire hadn't stayed in the pit, it had eaten the cross, and was hungry for more. It flickered around, searching for something other than wood, searching for human flesh. One by one each person was caught in the flame. One by one, they screamed until they died. The princess watched as her father perished. Soon, she was the only one left. She stood, surrounded by the flames. The fire closed in, and a fiery figure stepped out. It was Anna, dressed in the flames. "Good bye, oh princess", she said. The Princess screamed, but it was too late. Anna took out a flaming knife, and stabbed Princess Kayla in the heart. The princess gave a final scream, and died. The flame vanished, as if it were never there. During the following weeks, people searched the area, but they couldn't find anything but ashes. What confused them, was that the fire didn't burn any of the trees; no wood was even touched by the fire. It only ate upon the human flesh. Years have gone by. Centuries have passed, and still, some say, that on the stroke of midnight, you can see a little girl, covered in flames, carrying a knife, laughing in the woods. Some even say, that she only disappears every night, when someone has died from her ashes.... THE END.

the king grabbed Anna and started to drag her through the forest until they got to another clearing filled with people. In the middle were many picnic tables and off to the side was a giant fire pit with a huge cross. "the witch as been found and shall be burnt on the cross," the king announced to the people in the clearing. Every one cheered as he dragged Anna over to the fire pit. As Kayla tied Anna to the cross Anna asked between sobs, "why are you doing this...I thought we were friends." "Well, when we were baby's some how we got switched. My real parents are..well were Nick and Sally Smith. Oh and we took them out too. they didn't really die because they fell off that cliff. Because we were switched I couldn't become queen when I become of age. If the secret got out then you would be queen one day. I had to do something about it. I talked to my father and we hatched a plan. This is how we got to here. With you out of the picture, my stupid mother who was against our plan, and your parents out of the picture, I will become queen. We told everyone you are a witch to make it less suspicious," Kayla explained to Anna as she tied her rists tightly to the cross. "No, no ,no how can that be. Why are you even telling me these things. Please no, we can work things out...," Anna said to Kayla's back as she walked through the crowd, "I'm going to die on this cross because I was switched at birth long ago... no one to save me," she muttered to be self as tears ran down her face....

'I have kidnapped the king. If you do not want more dead, then meet me in the forest, or the king princess die too. Come at midnight' "I have to go" Anna said. "You can't die or your father can't die" "You can't go! You will surely die a horrible death!" sobbed the princess. "There is no stopping me..." replied Anna. "Then I am coming with you." ordered Princess Kayla. Knowing there was no stopping either of them, both fell silent. At five to midnight, the princess and Anna put on shoes and a jacket, and walked out of the door, into the clear, chilly, night. They came to the forest and stopped. Both looked each other in the eye, and nodded. Together, they stepped into the forest and walked until they came to a clearing. The man in black was in the middle. He looked up at them and smiled. He stood up and welcomed them. Slowly, he took of his jacket and glasses. Anna gasped. It was the king. Suddenly, she felt a dagger pressed against the small of her back. She turned around, and saw it was Princess Kayla. "What are you doing?!" Anna cried. "I trusted you!" "Which made it all the easier." Replied the Princess. "Come, come," said the evil King. "We've got a feast to attend my daughter!" The King grabbed Anna, and...

Anna slamed the door in his face and screamed. Princess kayla came running asking who was at the door. "Is the man in black.... and...and he has and dagger with... with blood dripping off it." Anna sobbed " what does he want with me." Kayla locked the door and took anna running to find the queen and king. Instead she found one of the gards and told him about the man. The gard called his men then went running to take rid of the man. He came back moments later and had a puzzled look on his face. " there was no man at the door or to be seen," the gard said. All of a sudden they heard a blood curdling screem. The three of them took off running and ended up in the queen and kings room. As the came into the room they saw that the queen was dead on the floor with lots of blood pooling around her. A blood stained peice of paper lay next to her that said...

The princess looked around and said quietly "Has a man come dressed all in black to your house?" Anna looked up at the princess. "Why, yes. He did. He said he was taking me to an orphanage." The princess's eyes turned panicked. "It's a good thing you lost him. He wasn't really going to take you to an orphanage. He would take you to a large house, deep in the forest. There, he would look after you, be kind to you. Then, when you least expect it, he'll sneak up behind you, and kill you. He eats the bodies. That's why we can never find them. Don't look into his eyes. You'll die from fright on the spot." Anna, now very scared, backed away from the princess. The princess smiled sadly. "You can come with me if you want" she said. I'm sure you can stay if you work." Anna agreed, glad to be safe. Together, the princess and Anna went to the castle where the Queen agreed that Anna could stay as the princess's private maid. Over the years, they became very close. They lived together happily, and Anna didn't mind the hard work. One day, the doorbell rang. "Can you go get it?" asked the Princess. "Of course" replied Anna. Anna went out of the room, and walked up to the door. She opened it, and there was the man in black, holding a dagger covered in dry blood...

Society's pressure is too much

1. You may argue that chemistry was unimportant but may I ask you: "what if you wanted to be a chemist?" What if you wanted to be a doctor? what if you wanted to be a philosopher? These classes can't be learnt in just college. 2. The point of saying to pick your own goals isn't to deny society but to say the views of society don't matter so don't be stressed. 3. Society doesn't look at a man and say you must be successful. Many people work in a factory, many people work in the field, many people follow their dreams and nobody look twice at them. Nobody hates the convenience store worker. Nobody hates the average Joe with a 9 to 5 desk job. If that is the basis of failure than things are too high 4. The argument of just change society is that society can change, you don't have to either leave society or accept the system. society was made to be changed. The constitution itself was designed to be changed. 5. Society is more than one's education and monetary standing. Again, America is a nation of optimists 6. What standard is it to be "successful," who defines "successful?" The only real thing which can make success is whether you believe you have done all you could. As long as you continue trying you are more successful than most.
Society's pressure is too much

First off, im not talking about having only one million dollar in bank account. of course more than a million. Average person cannot make it to even a million. If you are saying we shouldn't take society pressure, then you are in my favor my friend. Only practical classes helps learn a lot more than tests who we forget later on. do you remember what you had in your last chemistry test? no right? we barely remember questions and answers on the tests. You are totally favoring this topic by saying to achieve your own goals rather than looking towards the society and that is what i said, society's pressure of becoming successful is way too much nowadays. Thanks
Society's pressure is too much

1. money is not required for a good life. America was built under a foundation of allowing prosperity to all. One can easily earn 1 million dollars gradually by saving and spending carefully. We often deface the millionaire as being miserly. The man who works hard is praised more than the man given everything 2. Information from tests aren't pointless as the lessons gradually build up on each other. Knowledge of supply and demand helps you later in economics. Most Jobs require college as the knowledge required takes needs to be taught early on. Even if it doesn't give you practical experience at a job it will give you the basics which can the be applied practically. 4. America's best traits is it's optimism. Whether misplaced or not the fact we can have big dreams. 3. Societies goals and expectations mean nothing. You are who you are and should be proud of it. Don't feel pressured to be something you are not. 4. If you feel wronged by society then work for change. Without people willing to challenge the current state of affairs Blacks would be slaves and no women would vote.
Society's pressure is too much

In today's society, having a million dollar in bank, Ferrari on top and a good career is required. i ask why is it so important to follow society, it creates depression, anxiety, and pressure. There is a lot of pressure to be successful nowadays and the less successful person is considered not successful at all. There should be less pressure of college grades and school tests which are useless. Tests and exams are not there to help us succeed because when you take a test, everything you have answered you forget the next day. Are tests and exams really helpful towards success? it may be a part of class but it does not help us gain knowledge. The society pressure us to get good grades and the result is very obvious, we end up cheating. A person should not be in pressure of "when are you graduating?" or "how did you do in that class?". Having goals is fine but having million dollar goals due to pressure of society is wrong. Society is always going to point out when you are not successful, but once you are, they start hating you. so whats the point of fulfilling their expectations and worry about what society says regarding your career? I say, let them talk and go ahead achieve your own goals which are not society based such as becoming a doctor when you don't want to be.

Euthanasia :)

Your "I win this debate" argument is ridiculous. The slippery slope is fiction. You claim my arguments have no basis in fact, however before that you quote 11.3% involuntary euthanasia figures wthout providing a source. read the article at http://www.washingtonpost.com... and follow their sources. This article states that involuntary euthanasia is exceedingly rare and quotes it's sources. My I also comment that in order for anyone to be euthanised they need to have an extremely painfull and uncurable disease. This ruins the life of anyone who gets it regardless of age. This argument is up to the people. I may very well win this debate and saying you will win is an uneducated assumption as you have no record at all of winning debates on this site. Don't criticise me for possibly doing somthing then do it yourself. Also I would like to remind everyone that euthanasia on petts is legal and there is no "slippery slope" there. I rest my case and leave it to the people to decide
Euthanasia :)

"If done correctly the slippery slop can not happen." You admit there is a slippery slope and you think you can prevent it. How would you on earth manage to have a euthanasia law done so that slippery slope can not happen. An 8 year old in pain shouldn't be killed because he still has a life ahead of him and killing him will only hurt him and the people around him. You say doctors are healers, but we are talking about things that can't be healed. Doctors being able to be murders would clearly make this fine line between saving a life and ending one blurry. Gregory Koukl, Founder and President of Stand to Reason, noted in his Stand to Reason radio show (KBRT, AM 740 in Los Angeles) commentary titled "Euthanasia, Rights & Metaphysics" on the Stand to Reason website (accessed Oct. 9, 2009): "Now in Holland, twenty years later, twenty years of de facto, legalized euthanasia, where doctors administer it, nearly twenty per cent of the deaths of that country every single year, 19.4% specifically, are a result of euthanasia. One in five people in Holland are euthanized... 11.3%, more than one in ten, of the total number of deaths in that country, every single year (14,691 according to the Dutch government...) are cases of involuntary euthanasia. What's involuntary euthanasia? That's when the patient says, 'I don't want to die,' and the doctor says, 'you're dead,' zap... Your life is valuable if it makes a contribution. It is not making a contribution, so you are out of here. That's not just a slippery slope fallacy. That's not the old domino scare tactic. It's already happening in Holland and it started just this way. That's why when you make this kind of decision you better do your metaphysical thinking first. Instead of having your metaphysical conclusions that you made unwittingly gobble you up in the end. " Now you called me a liar saying there is no proof of slippery slope when clearly there is. You are saying statements that simply are not factually correct and therefore, I win this debate.
