"Both tobacco use and obesity are caused, in part, by our choices. And
our choices are influenced, in part, by our culture. An unhealthy
lifestyle can be deeply ingrained in a culture. It's certainly much
easier to smoke or make poor dietary choices when a substantial number
of your friends and family are doing it."
Here are some other points to ponder. Consider the states where tobacco use and obesity are the highest. These same states correlate with poverty, lower education and voting for Republicans.

Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
