There's a huge flaw in your logic there. I don't think there are ANY immediately positive effects to drinking OR smoking. I don't care how good a person feels from smoking or drinking, now or later. The only difference really is that with drinking, the liver is DESIGNED to remoev toxins that we ingest. With smoking, the lungs are NOT designed to self clean with the same efficiency. Therefore, one cigarette is worse than one drink (although, admittedly, on that scale neither really have any consequence). Furthermore, again, alcohol is not something that is by nature addictive to nearly everyone who takes part in it. Tobacco is. That's why, if I wanted, I could have an alcoholic drink once a night and not be addicted at all. I don't know a single smoker (with the exception of you apparently) who can say the same
