Your opinion would be different if you could better understand the implications of those consequences.

Every time you smoke you develop thousands of mutations in your body, and every harmful mutation further damages your metabolism, increasing the rate of malfunction. You're not only subjecting yourself to every physical illness you could possibly imagine; you're also throwing away your youth. As your biological youth fades away you'll only grow exponentially more ill, until you die. Young adulthood is considered the biological prime for a reason - it's the standard we would all live by, if our bodies would properly maintain themselves for an infinitely sustained period.
