Psychospiritual effects of substance admininstration?

I clearly do not endorse cigarettes at any length.  Why is this however.  Why condemn one form of tobacco use while enjoying another?  Is it just becuase of the increased association with lung disease and heart disease?  I am beginning to increasingly believe that there are psychospiritual differences in the absorption sites of the nicotine that one smokes.   Certainly anyone who smokes any tobacco product is going to inhale a small amount of tobacco fumes.  However, the inhalation of a cigarette is direct to the lungs and not absorbed in the oral mucosa at any great amount.   I am beginning to speculate that the absorption of nicotine is different on your spirutal health depending on how it is admininstered.  If oral absorption, the majority of the nicotine enters the blood stream and then travels with deoxygenated blood to the heart. It is oxygenated in the lungs where it passes next before being distributed to the brain.   Is this a factor?  Why not just inhale the tobacco fumes and allow absorption at the same time that you oxygenate your blood in your lungs?  I say this.  Absorption of the largest component of your nicontine use in the lungs competes with the inner spirutal nature of our cells when they are mainly focused on becoming oxygenated.  I can not say that a blood cell has a spirit as a living person does, however those who have thoughts of spirituality attribute a mystical presence of an almost soul like presence to all living tissue and even all objects.  Perhaps at a psychospirutal level, absorption of nicotine during the time of oxygenation renders you mystically in an inferior state.  I am a Religious Jew and I do ascribe mysticism to all objects.  Why not our blood cells and tissues as well?
