      No no, according to all the stoners (who, in their own words, arent addicted, they just smoke all day long) weed is some kind of miracle drug which does more good than bad to your body.

          speaking about lung cancer, anyone know the exact stats?


          if a person is smoking a pack of cigs daily for a 30 year old period - how likely is he to develop lung cancer?

          anyone know the % for that?

                    Heaps of different stats on the % it increases the risk around, but the individual/genetical base risk probably varies alot. It's a very controversial topic, certainly no excuse, but genetic predestination seems to make a huge difference.

                          not true, that would mean that every person who smokes cigs for the majority of his/her life, dies of lung cancer, while its obviously not the case

                            I find it completely pathetic and childish the way a person with one vice attacks another (person) whom decided on another (vice).

                            But hey, alcohol causes brain damage (actually, the dendrites), and does tend to make its users slow in the head.

                                    I quit cigs now for 3 weeks i gave myself a diet and exercise routine also to give something to aim for and not make quitting the cigarettes so hard and its been quite easy.
                                    Im 20 and smoked since i was 14, from about 16 ive smoked twenty a day or close. I couldnt imagine leaving it so late to quit that your 30,40+ years old. By then the damage is mostly already done and chances of getting cancer are very high for you then.

                                      there is no direct link to smoking and lung cancer. what about people who don't smoke that get lung cancer or people who smoke their entire lives and don't get it.

                                            The co-relation is to the amount of tar produced. Not lung cancer. These studies are never accurate any ways because they have a hard time finding people who only smoke weed, most smoke cigarettes as well. Also marijuana doesn't have a lot of chemicals added during production that tabacco has. Its no miracle, smoke anything enough and you'll probably get lung cancer.
                                            you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                              Hey, everyone has their drug. Could be drinking, snorting, shooting, smoking.

                                              There are far worse things out there than weed, at least it doesn't completely destroy people's lives. Shit, I was high most of my college career and I did pretty well.

                                              So, why are you so bent about people smoking weed?

                                                    Shooting is not a drug, drinking (water, juices, alcohol, whatever!)is natural, but smoking is not.

                                                    Denial is a defense mechanism in which a person is faced with a fact that is too painful to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence.

                                                          AH AH you owned yourself.
                                                          I'm not sure how you figured that I owned myself. Maybe you could explain it with your superior intelligence.

                                                                                      The new findings "were against our expectations," said Dr. Donald Tashkin, a UCLA pulmonologist who has studied marijuana for 30 years.

                                                                                      "We hypothesized that there would be a positive association between marijuana use and lung cancer and that the association would be more positive with heavier use," he said. "What we found instead was no association at all, and even a suggestion of some protective effect."
                                                                                      .
