It's defilement of the body and spirit, that's why we don't engage in smoking! 2Corinthians 7:1
May you have PEACE! smiley

Personally, I have not seen a Jehovah's witness smoke before. Individual would have overcome the addiction before being considered for possible baptism.
We try to live in comparison to God’s principles found in the Bible(that condemns smoking), and not in comparison with others. wink

Where in the Bible does it condemn smoking?

The bible does not specifically condemns smoking but it contains principles showing that God does not approve of unhealthy and unclean habits and thus views smoking as a sin.
I just mentioned you in a similar comment I made about this

Jehovah witnesses practice pure religion.
James 1:27.

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world


Have you ever seen beggars, political thugs, assassins etc among JWs?

Impossible!
Because their God and Father {John 20:17} is watching over them just as a SHEPHERD watches over His sheep {Psalms 23:1 compare to Isaiah 49:15} so in that Organization looking after orphans and widows in their distress and keeping oneself unspotted from this wicked world is their priority! James 1:27

So it's impossible to find miscreants in their midst! Jeremiah 31:33 smiley
