Good to know.
So you reckon that non-serious arguments or no arguments at all are not necessary as long as one wants to save someone? Do you imply that I could even go as far as having to kill someone as long as I believe that I'm somehow saving him?

No, I trust references from many different sources, but I tend to have a preference for peer reviewed. This is different from "official" sources.

"Naturally-occurring radioactive minerals accumulate on the sticky surfaces of tobacco leaves as the plant grows, and these minerals remain on the leaves throughout the manufacturing process. Additionally, the use of the phosphate fertilizer Apatite – which contains radium, lead-210, and polonium-210 – also increases the amount of radiation in tobacco plants. The radium that accumulates on the tobacco leaves predominantly emits alpha and gamma radiation."
You faield to fully address my previous argument. There is no question that plants accumulate radioactivity. Radioactive elements are naturally-occurring anyway whether or not man is present. I asked you to put this into perspective, that is, how does the radioactivity of tobacco compare with other plants humans commonly consume?
You also failed to demonstrate the presence of carcinogens and also put it into perspective.

Someday, Infundibulum, you'll read some report from an official source you trust, and then you'll stop touching tobacco.
The danger of your technique of "waiting for reports, not jumping to any conclusions by oneself" is that will be too late.
What will you say when you develop cancer, "Oh well, at least I waited for reports, thank goodness I didn't speculate."
You think speculating is bad, I think jumping to the correct conclusion and acting on correct speculations is: Intelligent.
I don't see where you're going here but whatever.
