[via Colby Cosh] I think Colby put it very well when he wrote:
Do Health Canada and Cancer Care Ontario hate tobacco? Of course they do. But when questions of cultural relativism enter the picture, it turns out there’s tobacco, and then there’s tobacco.
Here’s the site to which he was referring:
Christian fundies aren’t the only ones on the stupid side of the religious-vs-science tussle. Click the picture to visit the site.
Like other long-standing religious traditions such as witch-burning and human sacrifice, there’s no health upside to tobacco. Last time I checked, anything that can get you sick just by being in fields of it is a poison. This appears to be one of those cases where the facts come up against the good intentions of “we’re white, we’re straight and we’re sorry” and lose.
