"BURNT OFFERINGS"
The story of Moses and the burning bush, was written to remind man of how smoking must be used to compensate for the organic compounds found in the air he once had, in the environment of the trees. Today, as in the past, burnt offerings allow man the physical health, and therefore the mental ability, needed to commune with history in the form of words.
From: Encyclopedia Americana, -by Eric Partridge-

word history that renders the cultural history much more human."

If a person begins to show signs of digression, by trying to tell you the tradition of smoking is harmful, there is a way you can help them.
Help them brake away from the herd-like mentality that they have adopted by showing them how you have gained awareness through a personal relationship with that which is educational. Soon they will again be active members of the human race. Seeking wisdom and knowledge as if it were gold and silver. Instead of a pat on the head from members of a herd.
