Is it a SIN to Smoke? - Garner Ted Armstrong - February 1958

Garner Ted Armstrong

Does smoking cause cancer? Is it injurious to health? Should Christians smoke? Here, backed up by statistical PROOF, is what GOD says about smoking! Ten years ago, only six brands of cigarettes, all the same size, were the nation's leading sellers. Today, however, there are 32 leading brands, which come in 43 varieties and sizes! In Spite of the Warnings; This tremendous boom in the tobacco industry has taken place, to a large extent, since 1954, when the U.S. News and World Report gave results of an exclusive interview with Dr. E. C. Hammond, of the American Cancer Society. Dr. Hammond, when asked what HE was going to do in face of the evidence, said, "Well, I can tell you what I've done - I've switched to a pipe." - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
