Yes im sorry Wolf didn’t mean any offense

I don’t know why you’re apologizing… I was responding to KH, not you. In any event, there’s no need to apologize for disagreeing with me.

But a yeshiva bochur who smokes is different then someone you need to respect i have no chiyuv there what so ever unless some buckey in halacha tells me otherwise…

Why does it have to be all or nothing? Is smoking *so* heinous that it makes it impossible to respect someone regardless of any other good he does? Can you not respect him for his learning and his dedication to it even while you disapprove of his smoking?
