    It really all depends on your perspective, and your body. If you're stupid enough to smoke cigarettes and smoke a pack a day for 20 years, then cigarettes are worse.

    If you smoke marijuana 5 times a day but no cigarettes, then MJ is worse.

    Marijuana, as with any other drug, affects everyone differently. It makes some people laugh, some cry, some it makes angry and hostile. It has a tendency to make you a little careless as well, so you should absolutely NOT operate a motor vehicle after smoking any.

    Marijuana, unlike cigarettes, does have medicinal uses. Cancer patients and others who suffer from chronic pain/nausea use it to get rid of the nausea and to help them eat, since it increases hunger in some patients.

    Bottom line...cigarettes are stupid. Marijuana, not so much, as long as it's not done over a long period of time or frequently for no good reason.

    Stay away from both and you might live a lot longer.

    Cigarettes

    Cigarettes are way worse. As far as I can find there were 0 deaths last year from marijuana and thousands because of cigarettes.

    I think cigarettes are worse. They seem to have a much higher potential for addiction (I've never heard of a "marijuana addict," but I've sure heard of plenty of people who CANNOT stop smoking). Since marijuana is more-or-less illegal, depending on where you live, you're less likely to have enough to get hooked, in any case. Of course, the fact that it IS illegal most of the time is another issue in and of itself - but if both were legal, I'd definitely say cigarettes were much worse.

    that's basically too huge of a question. in case you have been discussing the well-being matters concerning smoking marijuana vs. cigarettes, neither are sturdy techniques, yet marijuana smoke is greater unfavourable to the lungs, exceptionally because of the dimensions of time the smoke is held interior the lungs. besides the undeniable fact that, on account that cigarettes are bodily addicting and marijuana isn't, tobacco human beings who smoke tend to smoke greater frequently, so that's in all probability that they might have greater substantial lung injury. Now, in case you have been speaking with regard to the psychological outcomes, it would count number what sort of outcomes you have been finding for. on account that nicotine is a stimulant, that's mentioned by many to "perk you up" and/or "take the part off." Marijuana could have a large decision of outcomes on human beings and extremely has a greater significant result on the neurotransmitters than nicotine. end: they're the two unfavourable!

    Cigarettes are worse.

    Most tobacco is controlled and regulated by tobacco compaines. They harvest, manufacture and sell it to the consumer appling several additives meant to keep you hooked/addicted on them.

    Marijuana grows wild and uncontrolled all over the world, but for the most part is natural, no additives really needed to keep you addicted. It is consumed mostly for feeling. I don't touch the stuff, but marijuana with long term use, effects your nervous system and it does erode brain cells over a period of time.
