    Tobacco and the Soul

    Hey guys, not sure if anyone has seen this before as it has been published a while but it makes for an interesting read.

    Tobacco and the Soul
    http://www.leaderu.com/ftissues/ft9704/opinion/foley.html
    What does smoking reveal about a person? Do the different ways of using tobacco signify a great variety of psychological meanings? This philosophical reflection provides a more traditional perspective on this timely topic.


    My impression of it after reading is that is comes across as a bit opinionated and I am not sure that I agree with some of the pigeon holes that he has entered certain stereotypes into but, as I said, interesting read
    Lo there do I see my Father. Lo there do I see my Mother, and my Sisters and my Brothers. Lo there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning. Lo they do call to me. They bid me take my place among them, in the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.

    "The fact that a cigar is not inhaled reflects this external focus." - Or it could just be an indicator of my desire not to puke?

      Of course, that interpretation works as well

        hehe, twas a bit flippant perhaps, tbh it's not a bad read but for me got really bent out of shape when he seems to have decided that the 'war' against cigarettes, and even STDs etc, comes down to "a concerted effort to sterilize our erotic attachments" not of course something to do with proloonging life and all that...
