LU -“We don’t decide how bad something is based on our feelings. No Gadol says it’s just as bad as not being shomer negiah. Being shomer negiah may be “yeihareig v’al yaavor”. Any Gadol will tell you that if you have to choose between smoking and not being shomer negiah, it is a million times better to smoke.”
Instead of saying it’s your opinion – you say Negiah is YVY from Gedolim and it’s better to smoke! Name the Godol! First of all, I don’t think everyone holds Abizrioh of Arious is YVY. Even if e/o holds it is, maybe smoking is also. Because smoking is Mavid Atzmo
L’daas! And not just that it’s Abizrioh of Rezicha, due to second -hand smoke!
